There've been better times There've been worse Almost heaven Sometimes hell on earth Humans love to think Hate to agree So the world is a playground for the military And you and I to history Yeah we are so small And in the Universe Do we matter at all? I believe we are the best We are the height by which to measure the rest We are lovers The truth is alive and well with us The future relies on those who are wise And brave enough to trust To give it all So find the words We are lovers A baby's born today Gun in hand Do we wear red, hell no We sell them the ammo Hey we need the cash Jobs yes indeed But they're shooting our children This money bleeds We're not goody goodies We're not bleeding hearts We are lovers Enough to trust To give it all So find the words Ooh in a world of ideas Love is better than others We are lovers Those of us wise enough Enough to trust to give it all So find the words We are lovers (we are lovers) We are lovers, lovers We are lovers (we are lovers) We are lovers, lovers We are lovers We are the height by which to measure the rest Lovers
