Earth Song (Michael Jackson)

Earth Song (Michael Jackson) Lyrics & Chords

This was not planned… just did it out of the blue… Backing vocals were already in the track…

Many of you have asked me to cover this over the past yr… so this one goes out to all of you! You know who you are :)

LYRICS!
What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain….
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine….
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we’ve shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth its weeping shores?

Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh

What have we done to the world?
Look what we’ve done.
What about all the peace,
That you pledge your only son?
What about flowering fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the dreams,
That you said was yours and mine?

Did you ever stop to notice,
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice,
This crying Earth its weeping shores?

Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh

I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don’t know where we are
Although I know we’ve drifted far

Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh

Hey

what about yesterday
(What about us)
What about the seas
(What about us)
The heavens are falling down
(What about us)
I can’t even breathe
(What about us)
[From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/m/michael-jackson-lyrics/earth-song-lyrics.html]
What about everything
(What about us)
I given you
(What about us)
What about nature’s worth
(ooo, ooo)
It’s our planet’s womb
(What about us)
What about animals
(What about it)
We’ve turned kingdoms to dust
(What about us)
What about elephants
(What about us)
Have we lost their trust
(What about us)
What about crying whales
(What about us)
We’re ravaging the seas
(What about us)
What about forest trails
(ooo, ooo)
Burnt despite our pleas
(What about us)
What about the holy land
(What about it)
Torn apart by creed
(What about us)
What about the common man
(What about us)
Can’t we set him free
(What about us)
What about children dying
(What about us)
Can’t you hear them cry
(What about us)
Where did we go wrong
(ooo, ooo)
Someone tell me why
(What about us)
What about baby boy
(What about it)
What about the days
(What about us)
What about all their joy
(What about us)
What about the man
(What about us)
What about the crying man
(What about us)
What about Abraham
(What was us)
What about death again
(ooo, ooo)
Do we give a damn

Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh

Michael’s best seller topping the UK charts and slashes back with a gr8 positive message, nominated for the Grammy Awards.
MJ the most talented and greatest singer ever in the history of music.
LOVE U MJ – BRING TEARS INTO MY EYES….
WE ALL MISS u :(

Yes, I was one of those who wanted you to sing Michael Jackson songs. Still waiting for ‘We are the World’. It needs lot of Voice modulations which u alone could do this. Brilliantly covered George, to my fav’.

Love to hear some Hillsong/Casting crowns covers from you.

LORD make us instruments of your peace
Where there is hatred let your love increase
Walls of pride and prejudice shall cease
When we are your instruments of peace.

Thanks for sharing.

MUSIC is the language of the soul!
