Took a taxi,
Rode the subway,
The world looked pretty,
And snow was on the ground.
Smiling faces,
Warm embraces,
You tossed a coin,
But you only see one side.
Ooh, the winds of change,
They follow you,
Have you ever seen the pain.
Through the backstreets,
A different picture,
Of muddy backlanes,
Say who do we protect.
And boney children,
Sit here waiting,
Our memories fading,
How easy we forget.
Ooh, the winds of change,
They follow you,
Have you ever seen the pain.
Armed in the congregation,
You see the ones that smile,
The smallest voice,
Of the weak and lonely child.
Ooh, the winds of change,
They follow you,
Have you ever seen the pain.
We see the future,
Going high tech,
A giant step for man,
Who's shooting for the moon,
A different viewpoint,
Another target
We leave the helpless,
And simply pass them by
Ooh, the winds of change,
They follow you,
Have you ever seen the pain.
Armed in the congregation,
You see the ones that smile,
The smallest voice,
Of the weak and lonely child.
