From a Distance.

By Bett Midler

From a distance the world looks blue and green

and the snow capped mountains white.

From a distance the ocean meets the stream and the eagle takes to flight

From a distance there is harmony and it echoes through the land

It's the voce of hope, it's voice of deeds it's the voice of every man.

From a distance we all have enough and no one is in need

And there are no guns, no bombs and no decease, no hungry mouths to feed.

From a distance we are instruments marching in the common land.

Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace, They're the thought of every man.

God is watching us, God is watching us, God is watching us .... from a distance.

From a distance you look like my friend, even though we are at war.

From a distance I just can not comprehend, what all this fighting is for.

From a distance there is harmony and it echoes through the land.

And it's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves, it's heart of every man.

It's the hope of hopes, It's the love of love's, this is the song of every man.

And God is watching us, God is watching us, God is watching us from a distance.

Oh God is watching us, God is watching, God is watching us ... from a distance.
