[Verse]
Sunrise in a broken city
Dreams lie shattered echoes pity
Footsteps on a path less traveled
Hearts of stone never unraveled
[Verse 2]
Whispers of a chance forsaken
Promises like leaves are shaken
Clocks that tick their silent sorrow
Spin the wheel and beg or borrow
[Chorus]
The world could have been so different
If love had been our firm commitment
Stars would blaze in joy so brilliant
The world could have been so different
[Verse 3]
Tears fall where the flowers wither
In our eyes a stormy weather
Bridges burned and never mended
Tales of hope that lie suspended
[Verse 4]
Echoes in the canyon calling
Catch us as we're always falling
Histories that line our pages
Words of wisdom lost through ages
[Chorus]
The world could have been so different
If love had been our firm commitment
Stars would blaze in joy so brilliant
The world could have been so different
Sunrise in a broken city
Dreams lie shattered echoes pity
Footsteps on a path less traveled
Hearts of stone never unraveled
[Chorus]
The world could have been so different
If love had been our firm commitment
Stars would blaze in joy so brilliant
The world could have been so different
