Lyrics

I often feel there’s no justice in the world, justice in the world
I see the innocence and the suffering and I… well sometimes I cry

But when a baby smiles and laughs in my direction
I can see the world and the future in her eyes
And there is nothing any closer to perfection
She is innocent and beautiful and wise, beautiful and wise

I’m frightened by the thoughts in my own mind
Imagining the fate of humankind

But when love comes from a place that's unexpected
Like a gift-wrapped present falling from the sky
Like a gathering of friends that feels connected
Like a gently falling snowstorm in July, in July

I know for sure that I can’t bear, the weight of the world
Anders: Oh my God, look at that picture over there! There's the Earth comin' up. Wow, is that pretty!
This fragile blue marble is something to behold
Koch: Honestly, what struck me wasn't necessarily just Earth, it was all the blackness around it. Earth was just this lifeboat hanging undisturbingly in the universe... Planet Earth, you are a crew.
Tumbling through the darkness, heavy and cold
Glover: You are special in all of this emptiness. The uniqueness of the blue planet in amongst all the darkness surrounding us in space truly inspires us to do better as one people.
Will it shatter or roll?

I often lay on the cold hard floor and wonder
What I am doing with my life

And then my child runs through the door and gives me affection
And his eyes are wide and his arms grip tight and I
I want to live a better life for his protection
’Cause he is innocent and beautiful and wise, beautiful and wise
