This is a song for the people who worry
_____
That tomorrow everyone will be dead
_____
This is a song for the dead of tomorrow
_____
Buried in a stone desert
_____
Leave us a flower and the grass that's still green
_____
Leave us a tree and the view of the sea
_____
Forget for once how much money a million is
_____
The world that must last an eternity
_____
You break and you chop and you drill through the mountains
_____
You level every hill
_____
Today's giants seem like dwarfs tomorrow
_____
Progress destroys what stood yesterday
_____
Leave us a flower and some grass that is still green
_____
Leave us a tree and the view of the sea
_____
Forget for once how much money a million is
_____
The world that must last an eternity
_____
The fish in the seas, poisoned to death
_____
The sand on the beaches, polluted by fuel oil
_____
And you, spoiled by the tankers and checkbook
_____
You don't even know where the seagull nested
_____
Leave us a flower and some grass that is still green
_____
Leave us a tree and the view of the sea
_____
Forget for once how much money a million is
_____
The world that must last an eternity
_____
And so life will disappear tomorrow
_____
Defeated by steel and reinforced concrete
_____
The moon will then shine coldly on your nightmare
_____
No one still knows how the end began
_____
Leave us a flower and some grass that is still green
_____
Leave us a tree and the view of the sea
_____
Forget for once how much money a million is
