Why can't we be (together)?   Could you love me, don't hate me   I don't see (why can't we live together)   Maybe we could get it on (maybe we could get it on)   Should be our destiny   There's a cold streak living (inside us)   There's no rainbows... just bullets and bombs   If you want to rise up   We can make this hate stop   Now don't you want to rise up      [Chorus:]   We've been giving hate a chance   (We've got all this love to give, you know)   And the love will be running out for us   Can you feel the dreams of life   We're hoping we can still survive   As the wind carries every dove away      So why do we see (these coulours)   It's only skin deep, don't mean a thing   (So clear underneath this we're all brothers)   Can't you see it's killing us   (Can't you see it's killing us)   Can't you see it's killing me   Trigger happy fantasy   So stand up and be (so strong now)   Freedom is not so far away   If you know you want to rise up   We can make this hate stop   Don't you want to rise up      [Chorus]      The wind carries every dove away   The wind carries every dove away (every dove away)   Dove, dove, dove, dove, dove, dove, dove      Now you've been taking our dignity for too long   I want to save this sanctity that we hold   And who's right and who's wrong   We're not so different anyway   Words are in this song   Can't we stop the fighting?      [Chorus]      Don't give this hate a chance   We've got all this love to give, you know   That this dream's alive, will still survive   Until no more people have to cry   Don't give this hate a chance   We've got all this love to give, you know   That this dream's alive, will still survive   Until no more people have to cry   Don't give this hate a chance   We've got all this love to give, you know   That this dream's alive, will still survive   Until no more people have to cry
