Wishing Well Lyrics

Wishing Well lyrics

What kind of world is this

I'm afraid to walk these streets alone

What kind of world is this

Where the commonplace is a broken home

What kind of world



What kind of world is this

Where the
law determines life or death

          for your unborn child

What
kind is world is this

We follow the images

          that mark
these times

And in this world



Chorus: I don't want to be

Solitary, solitary, no



What kind of world is this

Do we
so believe in

          every story that we've sold

What kind of
world is this

Where we welcome children

           but we shun the
old

And in this world



Chorus



What kind of world
is this

There's someone with your name

           sleeping on the
street tonight

 What kind of world

We turn our eyes away from
lovers

           but we gather for a fight

And in this world



I don't want to be solitary



(One of my many prayers for
more

compassion and forgiveness in our lives.)
