lyrics

Darkness can't hide much longer
The spirit is getting stronger
You keep the dance halls humming
But the end of the age is coming

I've searched all around the world to find a grain of truth
I opened the mouth of love and I found a wisdom tooth

Ah
Maybe you think I'm plastic
But your situation's drastic
I'm glad my faith is stronger
This world won't last much longer

I've searched all around the world to find a place of peace
I've sat in the shade of God and I watched the joy increase

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Oh oh ah ah
Oh oh-ho-oh
Ooh hoo hoo hoo ooh

There's no time left for stalling
Can't you hear someone calling
Life all around is crumbling
I think this world is stumbling
Maybe you think I'm wrong now
But this is my only song now

I've searched all around the world to find a grain of truth
Wo oh-ho-oh
I opened the mouth of love and I found a wisdom tooth
I've searched all around the world to find a place of peace
I've sat in the shade of God and I watched the joy increase

Yes, I've searched all around the world to find a grain of truth
Woah
I opened the mouth of love and I found a wisdom tooth

I've searched all around
I've searched all around
I've searched all around the world [x2]

Woo ooh hoo ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ah uh uh oh uh yeah

[Talking]
