If only for the children
We could turn the other cheek
And reach out for example
To pair for longer weeks
To aid all souls in number
The cry beyond our ear
And deal now with the problem
The snow fall with the years
If only for the children
We could smile at the sun
And dance amidst the flowers
And watch the river run
Show them all the value
That pockets cannot hold
Show them all the beauty
That's never bought or never sold
If only for the children
We could do this simple thing
And show them just the goodness
That only peace can bring
You think they wouldn't see us
Do you they wouldn't learn
That life can be around him
Whichever way they turn
