Lyrics:

(DiffordHolland) The saddest thing I've ever seen Was a starving face on my TV screen The desperate face that I saw Had my disbelief hanging from my jaw Our harvest could be shared around Instead it's buried in the ground The saddest thing I've ever seen Was a football fan dying for his team The toughest thing I have ever known Was a soldier boy who never made it home It's fiction live before our eyes It leaves me cold and my heart cries The greatest thing I've ever seen Was a newborn child looking up at me The greatest sound I've ever heard Was a baby's cry in this wicked world The innocence of that cry Leaves me cold and my heart cries It's a heartbreaking world if you want it to be It's a heartbreaking world if you want it to be It's a heartbreaking world if you want it to be And you're the one that breaks it for me
