I want to believe that my prayers are being heard
I want to believe that my prayers are being heard
Lately it seems they have all been wasted words
Lately it seems they have all been wasted words
How many prayers will it take?
How many prayers will it take?
How many tears must we cry?
How many tears must we cry?
Till we can walk across that bridge of hope
Till we can walk across that bridge of hope
To peace on the other side
To peace on the other side
I know we could change the sadness into smiles
I know we could change the sadness into smiles
If we could all see the world through the eyes of a child
If we could all see the world through the eyes of a child
How many prayers will it take?
How many prayers will it take?
How many tears must we cry?
How many tears must we cry?
Till we can walk across that bridge of hope
Jusqu'à ce que nous puissions traverser ce pont d'espoir
To peace on the other side
Vers la paix de l'autre côté
If everybody has the same thoughts
If everyone thinks the same way
And everybody share the same dream
Et tout le monde partage le même rêve
Can't we get together
Peut-on pas se rassembler
And make this world a better place
Et rends ce monde meilleur
I had a dram all our hatred turner into love
I had a dream where all our hatred turned into love
And every river of tears dried up into dust
Et chaque rivière de larmes a séché en poussière
Every woman and man
Every woman and man
Standing side by side
Debout côte à côte
Then we walked across that bridge of hope
Puis nous avons traversé ce pont d'espoir
To peace on the other side
Towards peace on the other side
If everybody has the same thoughts
If everyone shares the same thoughts
And everybody share the same dream
Et tout le monde partage le même rêve
Can't we get together
Peut-on pas se retrouver
And make this world a better place
Et rends ce monde meilleur
I want to believe that my prayers are being heard
I want to believe that my prayers are being heard
Lately it seems they have all been wasted words
Dernièrement, il semble qu'ils n'ont été que des mots gâchés
How many prayers will it take?
Combien de prières faudra-t-il?
How many tears must we cry?
Combien de larmes devons-nous pleurer ?
Till we can walk across that bridge of hope
Till we can walk across that bridge of hope
To peace on the other side
To peace on the other side
Can we walk across that bridge of hope
Can we walk across that bridge of hope
And find peace, sweet peace
And find peace, sweet peace
On the other side
On the other side
