Ute Lemper - The World and the Virtue lyrics

[Verse 1] On your way never repay hatred with hatred, but with justice Don't forget the most terrible weapon is the word It can ruin a life, without leaving a trace of blood The wounds won't heal, but when masters of a tongue And not the slaves of our words [Verse 2] On your way choose to not stole or betray But always be generous, with mistakes Wisdom lies not in the answers that are given Bound in the mystery of the questions That in which are lost, make use of the forgotten Of virtues, boldness and elegance, love and friendship [Verse 3] Love doesn't need to be understood It only needs to be shown Love doesn't need to be understood It only needs to be shown, it only needs to be shown It only needs to be shown, it only needs to be shown It only needs to be shown, it only needs to be shown On your way, stay close to the light On your way, stay close to the light On your way, when your mind is yours Feel the wind in your face and enjoy the freedom Listen to the wind, don't forget the horse that need your care Take a rest with him, you have long journey ahead [Verse 4] On your way, don't miss a thing On your way stay close to those who sing And tell stories and enjoy life Happiness is contagious and will always find a solution [Verse 5] Love doesn't need to be understood It only needs to be shown Love doesn't need to be understood It only needs to be shown, to be shown It only needs to be shown [Outro] On your way, stay close to the light On your way, stay close to the light On your way, stay close to the light Stay close, stay close to the light Enjoy the freedom
