When will we raise the veils and begin to see..  Love is the only bridge to unity..of mankind...  So many hopes and dreams can still come true...  but it all has to start with me and you, and our pride...    We need to set aside our differences...  and realize we're all the same..  Everybody wants to be the innocent...  Oh, nobody wants to take the blame...  To reach a truce we have to compromise...  And that don't mean giving in...  It' simply means that our wrongs are recognized...  And we're ready to begin...  To build On Common Ground....    Our children learn from what we say and do...  Their future world depends on what we choose..today...  The power is resting in the palms of our hands...  The time has come for All to rise and Stand...for change...    We need to set aside our differences...  and realize we're all the same..  Everybody wants to be the innocent...  Oh, nobody wants to take the blame...  To reach a truce we have to compromise...  And that don't mean giving in...  It' simply means that our wrongs are recognized...  And we're ready to begin...  To build On Common Ground....    To build On Common Ground...  To build On Common Ground    these lyrics are submitted by David Spencer Marsh
