Lyrics:

Are you ready to think of the future; to think about somebody else?
It may be your children’s children and not just yourself.
There’s a kingdom below the ocean, and it stretches beyond the sun
There is more than we ever imagined and it’s for everyone.

Chorus: Think about the children, oh the children

On a mountain beyond the horizon lay a bird with a broken wing
Although it suffered, it never surrendered, and it began to sing
And the children all stopped to listen to the melody in the air
The never heard the pain; they didn’t know it was there.

Chorus: Think about the children, oh the children

We’re part of the universe; we all share the moon and sun
And they will still be here; long after we are gone.

There was a dreamer who stood by the river; he was deep in a world of his own
Well he fell into the water and he sank like a stone
And in the silence of the evening, it was long after he was gone
The bird with the broken wing began to sing his song.

Chorus: Think about the children, oh the children

Are you ready to think of the future; to think about somebody else?
It may be your children’s children and not just yourself.
And not just yourself
And not just yourself
And not just yourself
