Lenses

    Help me find my glasses

    the ones with the rose lenses

    They help me to see beauty
    when I'm feeling dark and grim

    Can you help me find my glasses
    the ones that help me dream

    Without them, the world seems hopeless
    I long to hope again 

    Will you help me find my glasses
    the ones with the amber lenses

    They help me to feel safe and warm
    when I'm frightened, near the edge

    Won't you help me find my glasses
    the ones that let me see

    The best in each and every one of us
    not just our anger and our greed

    Can you help me find my glasses
    the ones that help me to believe

    That the world is full of dreamers
    I long to believe in dreams again 

    Won't you help me find my glasses
    the ones with the crystal lenses

    They help me see a bright future
    not a hopeless end

    Will you help me find your glasses
    the ones to help you see

    The same bright future
    if we only just believe
