Refrain:
Like the silence of the sea
Like the shadow of a tree
Like the desert needs the rain
We are children of this world

Like a rainbow on a mountain high
Like the prayers never lie
Like a flower beyond your reach
We are children of this world

Like a circle never ends
Like a mother understands
Like a candle in the wind
We are children of this world

1.
Eternally - like a circle never ends
Unselfish - like a mother understands
Incalculable - like a candle in the wind
We are - children of this world and we let it in

2.
Understanding is the way into a world of happiness
We all have the same destination
We are children of this world

3.
Unimpeachable - like a rainbow on a mountain high
Unfallible - like the prayers never lie
Inaccessible - like a candle in the wind
We are - children of this world, don't teach just preach
