From a Distance (1990)
Bette Midler
From a distance, the world looks blue and green, And the snow capped mountains white. From a distance, the ocean meets the stream, And the eagle takes to flight.
From a distance, there is harmony, And the echo through the land. It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace, It's the voice of every man. From a distance, we all have enough, And no one is in need. And there are no guns, no bombs and no diseases, No hungry mouths to feed. From a distance, we are instruments, Matching in a common band, Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace,
There is the song of every man. God is watching us, God is watching us, God is watching us, from a distance, Ohh God is watching us ....... from a distance.
From a distance, you look like my friend, Even though we're at war. From a distance, I just cannot comprehend, What all this fighting is for ?
From a distance, there is harmony, And the echo through the land. It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace, It's the voice of every man. From a distance, we all have enough, And no one is in need. And there are no guns, no bombs and no diseases, No hungry mouths to feed. From a distance, we are instruments, Matching in a common band, Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace, There is the song of every man.
