Squeeze - Heartbreaking World текст песни

(difford/holland)

The saddest thing Ive ever seen

Was a starving face on my tv screen

The desperate face that I saw

Had my disbelief hanging from my jaw

Our harvest could be shared around

Instead its buried in the ground

The saddest thing Ive ever seen

Was a football fan dying for his team

The toughest thing I have ever known

Was a soldier boy who never made it home

Its fiction live before our eyes

It leaves me cold and my heart cries

The greatest thing Ive ever seen

Was a newborn child looking up at me

The greatest sound Ive ever heard

Was a babys cry in this wicked world

The innocence of that cry

Leaves me cold and my heart cries

Its a heartbreaking world if you want it to be

Its a heartbreaking world if you want it to be

Its a heartbreaking world if you want it to be

And youre the one that breaks it for me
