lyrics

Mother says the earth's in need of attention
Mother says we ought to slow down
You can’t set a course if you don’t first look around

But oh, I didn’t listen ‘til now
Oh, I didn’t listen ‘til now

Father says he took without consideration
Now the lender’s come to collect
He knows in this life there’s a balance we must respect

But oh, I didn’t listen ‘til now
Oh, I didn’t listen ‘til now

We are the debtors in the well-worn bond of trade
So, we must learn again the laws of give and take
Before it’s too late
Is it too late to change?

Sister, she believes in reconciliation
Sister knows that we can survive
Oh, it is simply too good to be alive
Sister, she knows it’s too good to be alive

But oh, I didn’t listen ‘til now
Oh, I didn’t listen ‘til now

Sister, she believes in reconciliation
Sister knows that we can survive
Oh, it is simply too good to be alive
