I know you live on my street

I sometimes wonder

Why we don't meet

I've seen your face in the sky

Twenty-five stories high

You never come down to earth

Communication (communication)

Could hardly be much worse

Don't keep me here in the dark

I want to be your friend

Your fears are way off the mark



Every generation

Sees it their own way

Never learning their lessons

Making the same mistakes again



It's not the same for us - as history fades away

It's not the same for us - you must hear me when i say



Look out on this brave new land

Think of the future

The future that lays in our hands

Our leaders live in the past

We can change it

There's something to hope for at last



Every generation

Sees it their own way

Why don't we learn our lessons

Don't make the same mistakes again



(chorus)



What dreams are you chasing now?

What are you living for?

The problems that we're facing now

Nobody faced before

Please don't reject me

In anger or in sorrow

You've got to accept me

If we're to make a better tomorrow



It's not the same - it's not the same for us
