somewhere in the world today
there’s a storm, there’s rain
there’s a tidal wave, it’s flooding
some homes were washed away
somewhere in the world today
somewhere in the world today
there’s a storm, there’s no power
there’s a fire, it’s burning
some homes were turned to ashes
somewhere in the world today
somewhere in the world today
there’s a war, there’s unrest
there’s a bomb, it’s exploding
some homes were blown away
somewhere in the world today
somewhere in the world today
there’s anger, there’s sorrow
there’s hatred, it’s spreading
some homes were torn apart
somewhere in the world today
somewhere in the world today
something is happening
not nice, not good, not right
but somewhere else
in the world today
it’s a quiet peaceful night.
