Rick Wakeman - Dream The World Away lyrics

The little girl watches the rich folk pa**ing by The pavement´s cold and hard, but she don´t cry Her helpless little smile, is the way that she survives You can turn your head, but your heart cannot hide. The daddy watches his little daughter play But the only thing he wants is her pay, at the end of the day To say that he cares, brings a tear to my eyes The profiteering business man, he´s the one should cry. Somewhere in the world, there´s got to be a way To save this little girl from fading away Somewhere in the world there has to be some sign Before she walks the street the final time. Her hands are reaching out, as you sit there quietly The silence in her eyes, shows no need for hospitality The child she shows no feelings, no expressions on her face, so pale Another three years on and she´ll have something else for sale. Tell me what we can do, to help her live a better life Anything we give, somebody takes away So take what you can find And dream the world away. Somewhere in the world, there´s got to be a way To save this little girl from fading away Somewhere in the world there has to be a sign Before she walks the streets again - Just dream the world away.
