We all live on this planet 
Giant gentle and blue 
We breathe and walk and wonder 
A place for me and you 

Why is it that I wake up 
To a new day's light 
And how come the starlight 
Shines so bright tonight 

Tell me bout that wonder 
How long can it last 
The sun we're living under 
Is burning much too fast 

We've come a long way searching 
For what we think is true 
Big machines and bigger dreams 
Big illusions too 

Every beast we've mastered 
Every sea we've sailed 
Every fortress conquered 
Yet I think we failed 

Tell me bout that wonder 
How long can it last 
The sun we're living under 
Is burning much too fast 
Tell me bout that wonder...
