Nanci Griffith - From a Distance [DVD][Live]

Lyrics

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

And 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,

Ooh 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?

It's the hope of?, it's the love of all

It's the heart of every man

It's the hope of? it's the love of all

It is the song of every man

Ooh God is watching us, God is watching us

From a distance
