There's a hole in the world tonight.
There's a cloud of fear and sorrow.
There's a hole in the world tonight.

Don't let there be a hole in the world tomorrow.

They say that anger is just love disappointed.
They say that love is just a state of mind.

But all this fighting over who is anointed,

Oh, how can people be so blind?
There's a hole in the world tonight.

There's a cloud of fear and sorrow.
There's a hole in the world tonight.

Don't let there be a hole in the world tomorrow.

Oh, they tell me there's a place over yonder

Cool water running through the burning sand.

Until we learn to love one another,

you will never reach the Promised Land.
There's a hole in the world tonight.

There's a cloud of fear and sorrow.
There's a hole in the world tonight.

Don't let there be a hole in the world tomorrow.

There's a hole in the world tonight.

There's a cloud of fear and sorrow.
There's a hole in the world tonight.

Don't let there be a hole in the world tomorrow.
There's a hole in the world tonight.

There's a cloud of fear and sorrow.
There's a hole in the world tonight.
Don't let there be a hole in the world tomorrow.
