War of Words
[Verse 1]
I dream of a world you want to see
But it doesn't mean the same to you as it does to me
You look for the meaning everywhere
I walk away, but that's not to say that I don't care

[Pre-Chorus]
How does time decide
How you and I make up our lives?

[Chorus]
A war of words is not the answer
To all the questions that we ask
It's a tale as old as time
Maybe love is still the answer
To all our lives that just go by too fast
Let the past be in the past

[Verse 2]
You'll never change what you have done
But you can choose to bе the person you've bеcome
Moving up and moving on
Life's a race that everybody has to run

[Pre-Chorus]
How do we make sense of it all?
How do we rise where no one needs to fall?
[Chorus]
A war of words is not the answer
To all the questions that we ask
It's a tale as old as time
Maybe love is still the answer
To all our lives that just go by too fast
Let the past be in the past

[Bridge]
I hear the children play
And I don't have to listen to know
What their laughter's trying to say

[Chorus]
Oh, a war of words is not the answer
To all the questions that we ask
It's a tale as old as time
Maybe love is still the answer
To all our lives that just go by too fast
Let the past be in the past, oh

[Chorus]
A war of words is not the answer
To all the questions that we ask
It's a tale as old as time
Maybe love is still the answer
To all our lives that just go by too fast
Let the past be in the past
