a time to love

Stevie Wonder

We have time for racism
We have time for criticism
Held bondage by our ism´s
When will there be a time to love

We make time to debate religion
Passing bills and building prisons
For building fortunes and passing judgements
When will there be a time to love

At this point in history we have a choice to make
To either walk a path of love
Or be crippled by our hate

We have time to cause pollution
We have time to cause confusion
All wrapped up in our own illusions
When will there be a time to love

We make time to conquer nations
Time for oil exploration
Hatred, violence and terrorism
When will there be a time to love

At this moment in time
We have a choice to make
Father god is watching
While we cause mother earth so much pain
It´s such a shame

Not enough money for
The young, the old and the poor
But for war there is always more
When will there be a time to love

We make time for paying taxes
Or paying bills and buying status
But we will pay the consequences
If we don´t make the time to love

Now´s the time to pay attention
Yes now is the time... to love...
A time love... love...
A time to love
Please, please won´t you tell me
When will there be a time to love...
