Bette Midler
From A Distance

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 ev'ry man.

From a distance, we all have enough
and no one is in need.
And there are no guns,
no bombs and no diseases,
no hungry mouths to feed.

From a distance we are instruments,
marching in a common band,
playing songs of hope,
playing songs of peace,
there's a song for ev'ry 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 fighting is for.

From a distance there is harmony,
and it echoes through the land.
It's the hope of hopes,
it's the love of loves,
it's the heart of ev'ry man.
It's the hope of hopes,
it's the love of loves,
this is the song of ev'ry man.

God is watching us,
god is watching us,
god is watching us from a distance,
Oh, god is watching us,
god is watching,
god is watching us from a distance
