Toward the Unknown lyrics

The winds of war are echoes no more

And yet they still resound.

It seems to me that peace is the reason,

Worlds were meant to go round.

And the world goes round

Around and around

And never stops its turn.

I sometimes wonder

What we have found

And what we'll ever learn

Perhaps within its turning

Our universe keeps learning and learning.

For every child that sends me a smile

I send back a smile of my own.

Hello, goodbye!

The earth and the sky is all we’ve ever known.

And life is part of giving your heart

And no one can live all alone.

And I believe that what we receive

Is only ours on loan.

We’ve got to earn our place in the world

So we can call it our own

Our children are tomorrow

Bought by loving and paid for by sorrow

In war or peace the games never sease

But still we salute the unknown
