lyrics

Intro:

 

dum da da da dum, dum da da da dum, dum da da da da da da da. dum da da da dum 

 

Verse 1

 

Please Believe us;

Please tell us true

Why are you doing,

The crazy things you do?

Young hearts are running free,

Making history

Hard rains ‘a falling,

Future’s plain to see (plain to see)

(Oh Ahh)

 

Chorus

 

We are the children of the generation

Born to catch the wind,

Born to turn the tide

Swim an ocean;

Climb a mountain

As we’re running, running, running

A-gainst time, time, time

 

Dum da da da dum, dum da da da dum,

dum da da da da da da da. dum da da da dum

 

Verse 2

 

Earth is calling, knocking on our door Shaking our windows,

Crashing on our shores

Young hearts hear you call,

Speaking out and standing tall

Hard rains a’ falling,

Falling on us all. (on us all)

(Oh Ahh)

 

Chorus

 

We are the children of the generation

Born to catch the wind,

Born to turn the tide

Swim an ocean;

Climb a mountain

As we’re running, running, running

A-gainst time, time, time

 

Middle 8

Living in the best of times

How can they be the worst?

Will you lend a helping hand?

Put the future first, first, first?

(oh, Ahhh)

Chorus

 

We are the children of the generation

Born to catch the wind

Born to turn the tide

Swim an ocean;

Climb a mountain

As we’re running, running, running______
