Big Country

If theres one great thing
To happen in my life
If theres one great day
If theres one great height
Let it be the time for peace
Let it be the time of right
If theres one great thing
To happen in my life
Ive seen to much of what
fighting has done
Ive seen too much anger
Ive seen it far too young
And talk will come to nothing
While the shouting still goes on
But we are only singers
And too many songs are sung
Ive seen the way of martyrs
Ive seen the way of kings
Ive seen the hope that love can bring
I only hope what pleases me
Will also pleasure you
For mine can never be the hands
That make a dream come true
[ One Great Thing Lyrics ]
