FROM A DISTANCE BY BETTE MIDLER

 

Lyrics

From a distance the world looks blue and green
And the snow capped mountains white
From a distance the ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It’s the voice of hope
It’s the voice of peace
It’s the voice of every man
From a distance we all have enough
And no one is in need
And there are no guns, no bombs and no disease
No hungry mouths to feed
From a distance we are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope
Playing songs of peace
They are the songs of every man
God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us from a distance
From a distance you look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance I just cannot comprehend
What all this fightings for
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it’s the hope of hopes
It’s the love of loves
It’s the heart of every man
It’s the hope of hopes
It’s the love of loves
This is the song for every man
God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us from a distance
God is watching us
God is watching
God is watching us from a distance

  1. Miss Midler singing with the grace
    Of a ballerina, and the children dance.
    She’s the voice of an angel
    This pop -star prophet.

    All good servants of God
    Come in unlikely forms.

  2. distress nibbles
    with broken promises
    love hides
    in silence that creeps
    to the sorrows we keep..
    agony hearts
    redress in time
    with courage in mind
    in dreams to find..
    from a distance
    i watch as hope
    shines on the morrow.
