Believe In Humanity Lyrics

If you read the papers you may see
History in the making
You`ll read what they say life is all about
They say it`s there for the taking
Yeah, but you should really check it out
If you want to know what`s shaking

But don`t tell me about the things you`ve heard
Maybe I`m wrong, but I want to believe in humanity

I know it`s often true -- sad to say
We have been unkind to one another
Tell me how many times has the golden rule
Been applied by man to his brother
I believe if I really looked at what`s going on
I would lose faith I never could recover

So don`t tell me about the things you`ve heard
Maybe I`m wrong, but I want to believe in humanity

Maybe I`m living
With my head in the sand
I just want to see people giving
I want to believe in my fellow man
Yes, I want to believe
