One World

“One world is enough for all of us”

“One World/Love is the seventh wave” – Sting

It may seem a million miles away
But it gets a little closer everyday
It may seem a million miles away
But it gets a little closer everyday

One world is enough, for all of us
One world is enough, for all of us

It’s a subject we rarely mention
But when we do we have this little invention
By pretending they’re a different world from me
I show my responsibility
One world is enough, for all of us
One world is enough, for all of us

The third world breathes our air tomorrow
We live on the time we borrow
In our world there’s no time for sorrow
In their world there is no tomorrow
One world is enough, for all of us
One world is enough, for all of us

Lines are drawn upon the world
Before we get our flags unfurled
Whichever one we pick
It’s just a self deluding trick
One world is enough, for all of us
One world is enough, for all of us

I don’t want to bring a sour note
Remember this before you vote
We can all sink or we all float
‘Cause we’re all in the same big boat
One world is enough for all of us
One world is enough for all of us
One world is enough for all of us
One world is enough for all of us
It may seem a million miles away
But it gets a little closer everyday
It may seem a million miles away
But it gets a little closer everyday

In the empire of the senses
You’re the queen of all you survey
All the cities all the nations
Everything that falls your way
There is a deeper wave than this
That you don’t understand
There is a deeper wave than this
Tugging at your hand

Every ripple on the ocean
Every leaf on every tree
Every sand dune in the desert
Every power we never see
There is a deeper wave than this
Swelling in the world
There is a deeper wave than this
Listen to me girl

Feel it rising in the cities
Feel it sweeping over land
Over borders, over frontiers
Nothing will its power withstand
There is no deeper wave than this
Rising in the world
There is no deeper wave than this
Listen to me girl

All the bloodshed, all the anger
All the weapons, all the greed
All the armies, all the missiles
All the symbols of our fear
There is a deeper wave than this
Rising in the world
There is a deeper wave than this
Listen to me girl

At the still point of destruction
At the center of the fury
All the angels, all the devils
All around us can’t you see
There is a deeper wave than this
Rising in the land
There is a deeper wave than this
Nothing will withstand

I say love is the seventh wave

  1. Forse ti ho già incrociato ma comunque…
    Amo la fotografia, sì molto, tu usi la camera benissimo ( immagino tutta opera tua, anche questa qua sopra scattata in Tanzania?).
    Scegli musica adeguata ed è una cosa rara.
    Citi all’inizio Henri Cartier Bresson. Perfetto!
    Sei assoluatamente da segnalare sul blogroll. Ciao

    1. Grazie!!! 🙂 Le foto sono tutte mie, si, anche questa. L’ho scattata con tante altre nei 15 giorni che sono stata li con una onlus. Ne stavo scrgliendo un po’ per farci una gallery e intanto m’è sembrato il periodo adatto per postarne almeno una. E anche la musica è un bel pezzo di me, mi fa sempre compagnia. Piacere di conoscerti e di averti qui!

      "Mi piace"

  2. Tu riesci a trasmettere bellezza, atmosfere speciali, emozioni in modo mirabile. Io resto incantata davanti alle tue foto, non sono solo belle esteticamente parlando, le tue foto “parlano” .
    Ecco, mi fai un pò rabbia…
    P.S. Enzo è amico mio, fidati, è un grande!
