The city is still asleep
Peace already covers the streets
Too late to be excited
Too early to awake
What if we found out today
That we're not alone in outer space
Would it change anything
Would it change us
When did I stop
Listening to the birds
Watching the flowers bloom
Listening to the rain
Watching the wind move in trees
Listening to this heart of mine
Hunting dreams that seem to fade away
In this home built out of pillows and love
What if we found out today
That there's peace on earth
When did I stop
Listening to the birds
Watching the flowers bloom
Listening to the rain
Watching the wind move in trees
Listening to this heart of mine
I believe we all just walk in line
Pretending to be blind
Secretly hoping for the aftermath
Leaving it up to God to make things right
Afraid to fail we hide inside
As if our lives were meaningless
When did I stop
Listening to the birds
Watching the flowers bloom
Listening to the rain
Watching the wind move in trees
Listening to this heart of mine
