Lyrics - This Is The World Calling by Bob Geldof

I hear a heartbeatit's ringing out across the universe
It sounds so lost and lonelymust come from somewhere deep inside of us.
And the operator says:
AII is calm and all is quietclose your eyes and sleep tonight.
This is the world callingthis is earththis is the world callingthis is us.
I'm on a train now
I'm moving through the yellow fields of rape
There's so much beauty
I wished that
I believed enough to pray.
Then the operator replies:
Spinning 'roundyou're wrapped in bluethere's no one looks as good as you.
This is the world callingthis is earththis is the world callingthis is us
This is the world callingthis is usand it goes on and on.
What we're going to do because we can't go on
What we're going to do because we can't go on
Wrap me in your arms and keep me warm tonight.
What we're going to do because we can't go on. . .
This is the world callingthis is earththis is the world callingthis is us
This is the world callingthis is earth
This is the world calling
God help usand it goes on and on and on.
All is calm and all is quietclose your eyes and sleep tonight -
This is the world calling -
All is calm and all is quietclose your eyes and sleep tonight -
This is the world calling -
All is calm and all is quietyou look beautiful for tonight -
This is the world calling
This is the world calling -
Spinning 'roundyou're wrapped in bluethere's no one looks as good as you -
This is the world callingall is calmall is quiet -
This is the world calling - close your eyes -this is the world calling.
