Lyrics Christopher Cross

Christopher Cross

Curled Around The World

Life is a long road; everyone knows it

Nothing is ever the way that you suppose it

The window blows open the minute you close it

And hatred finds a way into your heart

Living escapes us lost in our labors

Doing our damage and blaming our neighbors

Praying to paper and begging for favors

And hatred finds a way into our hearts

Picture a place where your love makes a difference

Where silence has meaning and the noble run free

Cradle the dream of your sisters and brothers

Arms gently curled around the world

We can relinquish the sorrows that hold us

Taking our strength back from those we let control us

Letting acceptance and mercy enfold us

And clear the path for love to find a way into our hearts

Picture a place where your love makes a difference

Where silence has meaning and the noble run free

Cradle the dream of your sisters and brothers

Arms gently curled around the world

We can find the way to hold this world inside our hearts

Picture a place where your love makes a difference

Where silence has meaning and the noble run free

Cradle the dream of your sisters and brothers

Arms gently curled around the world

I will remember my love makes a difference

And try to recall that it all begins with me

Cradle this dream of a sweet ever after

With arms gently curled around the world

Arms gently curled around the world

It all could come true
