Can you hear the song we’re singing?
Is it so very hard to see the signs of the times
Can you hear the song we’re singing
Don’t close the book
Don’t be afraid to take another look at life

Do you hear the songs they’re signing?
Do you try to understand what’s in the lines
What kind of songs are these they’re bringing?
That tell you black is white
To try and put out the light that’s in your eyes

Now that reminds me of the times I’d walked away
‘Cos I’d heard the tune so many times before
But when I hear those melodies
That used to be so dear to me
They haven’t got the magic anymore

All those nights that you spent crying
Did you think the tears were all in vain?
Did you think that no one saw you trying
To bring it back together when
You’d lost a love you’d hoped would never end

Anyone can sing the song we sing
If they have an ear to hear the song we’ve sung
They can sing along with the song we sang
