From a distance the world looks blue and green   and theres no blacked mountain spy   from a distance the ocean meets the stream   and the eagle takes to fly      from a distance there is harmony   and it echoes through the land   it's the voice of hope   it's the voice of peace   it's the voice of every man      from a distance we all had enough   and no one's his enemy   there are no Gods no pause and no oddysey   no hungry mouths to feed   from a distance we are your instruments   marching in a common land   playing songs of hope   playing songs of peace   are the songs of every man      from a distance you look like my friend   even though we are at war   from a distance i just cannot comprehend   what all this war is for   from a distance there is harmony   and it echoes through the land   its the hope of hope   its the love of love   its the heart of every man   its the hope of hopes   its the love of loves   this is the song of everyman      God is watching us    God is watching us   God is watching us   from a distance   God is watching us    God is watching   God is watching us   from a distance
