1
I saw a little beam of sunlight steal across a purple sky
2
And bend down to kiss a rosebud oh it made me wanna cry
3
To think that I had been permitted to see a part of nature's plan
4
Oh, there's nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man.
5
Little children painting pictures of the birds and apple trees
6
Oh, why can't the grown up people have the faith of one of these
7
And to think those tiny fingers might become a killer's hand
8
Oh, there's nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man.
9
Why can't we see the folly and the uselessness of hate
10
Love could lead to understanding maybe it's not too late
11
Then perhaps in his great wisdom we might learn to understand
12
Then there'd be no shame or sorrow and no selfishness in man.
