Watchful - What Have We Learned?

Still their armies plunder on
And our hatreds linger on
If our leaders wander on
What have we learned

And the children wonder why
They were simply born to die
And there's no use asking why
What have we learned

But I look into your eyes
And I start to realize
That this world is made of dreams
That's all that life really means

And when you grow old and wise
And you see life through my eyes
You can teach this world to smile
It takes a long, long while

If you hold on to my hand
I will believe and understand
That we've learned our lessons well
I think it's far too soon to tell

When the fool looks in the sky
Does he think that he can fly
Even birds will loudly cry
What have we learned

If our hearts have turned to stone
Must we carry on alone
Will we reap what we have sown
What have we learned

But I look into your eyes
And I start to realize
That this world is made of dreams
That's all that life really means

And when you grow old and wise
And you see life through my eyes
You can teach this world to smile
It takes a long, long while

If you hold on to my hand
I will believe and understand
That we've learned our lessons well
I think it's far too soon to tell

But I look into your eyes
And I start to realize
That this world is made of dreams
That's all that life really means

And when you grow old and wise
And you see life through my eyes
Oh, teach this world to smile
It takes a long, long while

If you hold on to my hand
I will believe and understand
That we've learned our lessons well
I think it's far too soon to tell

What have we learned
