Lyrics:

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 along)

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
