We are a rock revolving
  Around a golden sun
  We are a billion children rolled into one
  So when I hear about the hole in the sky
  Saltwater wells in my eyes

  We climb the highest mountain
  We'll make the desert bloom
  We're so ingenious we can walk on the moon
  But when I hear of how the forest have died
  Saltwater wells in my eyes

    I have lived for love
    But now that's not enough
    For the world I love is dying And now I'm crying 
    And time is not a friend (no friend of mine)
    As friends we're out of time
    And it's slowly passing by ....right before our eyes

  We light the deepest ocean
  Send photographs of Mars
  We're so enchanted by how clever we are
  Why should one baby feel so hungry she cries
  Saltwater wells in my eyes
  
    I have lived for love
    But now that's not enough
    For the world I love is dying And now I'm crying 
    And time is not a friend (no friend of mine)
    As friends we're out of time
    And it's slowly passing by ....right before our eyes

  We are a rock revolving
  Around a golden sun
  We are a billion children rolled into one 
  What will I think of me the day that I die
  Saltwater wells in my eyes
  Saltwater wells in my eyes
