[English]

This could be heaven

This could be heaven

This could be heaven

This could be heaven,

This could be heaven for everyone

In these days of cool reflection (reflection)

You come to me and everything seems alright

In these days of cold affections

You sit by me and everything's fine

This could be heaven for everyone

This world could be fed,

This world could be fun

This could be heaven for everyone

This world could be free,

This world could be one

In this world of cool deception

Just your smile can smooth my ride

These troubled days of cruel rejection

You come to me, soothe my troubled mind

Yeah this could be heaven for everyone

This world could be fed,

This world could be fun

This should be love for everyone (yeah)

This world should be free,

This world could be one

We should bring love to our daughters and sons

Love, love, love, love

This could be heaven for everyone

You know that

(This could be heaven for everyone)

Yes!

(This could be heaven for everyone)

This could be heaven for everyone

Listen.

What people do to other souls

They take their lives, destroy their goals

Their basic pride and dignity

Is stripped and torn and shown no pity

When this should be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven,

This could be heaven

This could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven,

Could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven

(This could be heaven)

This could be heaven,

Could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven

(This could be heaven)

This could be heaven,

Could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven

This could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven

This could be heaven

This could be heaven...

For everyone

For everyone
