"Everyone Surrenders, Everybody Wins"
Words & Music by James Nihan
Will you be my brother?
Will you be my sister?
Will you dance with me around the sun?
And what about our Mother?
When have we last kissed her
For giving life to everyone?
Will you be my lover?
Will you share the passion
And believe that wonders never cease?
Will you hold the flower
When the guns are flashin'?
Will you be a messenger of peace?
Lay down your sword.
Lay down your shield.
We can't afford
One more battlefield.
Chorus:
Love your sister and your brother
When you turn towards one another
Open up your heart
And the easy part begins.
Love-don't fight the feeling.
That's the way the world starts healing.
If everyone surrenders
Everybody wins.
Will you be my sister?
Will you be my brother
And only raise your voice in harmony?
We'll leave our eyes wide-open
And dream about each other
As part of one big family.
When all is said.
When all is done.
The blood we've shed
Just runs into one.
(Repeat Chorus)
If everyone surrenders
Everybody wins.
Everyone surrenders
Everybody wins.
Everyone surrenders
Everybody wins.
