lyrics

Can't escape the news
And tragedies every day
And desperate people
Being washed away

Oh brother what should we do?
Oh brother what should we do?
Oh brother what should we do now?

Wherever I look around
Seems everyone’s worked it out
Ashamed I still don’t know
What it’s all about

Oh father I’m so confused
Oh father I’m so confused
Oh father I’m so confused now

For the gap between what is and what could be
Is as fragile as the beating of a butterfly’s wing

Between the world and me
Between the world and what you see
Between the world and me
Between the world and what you see

We want all the love
But not commit too much
But beware that cautious hearts
Can grow cold to touch

So lover where should we go?
So lover where should we go?
So lover where should we go now?

For the gap between what is and what could be
Is as fragile as the beating of a butterfly’s wing

So grab someone and roll and roll and roll and roll and
Roll and roll and roll and roll and roll and roll and roll and
Roll about

Between the world and me
Between the world and what you see
Between the world and me
Between the world and what you see
