This was the year when the dreams of man will finally lay down to rest
But you know they say that "hope springs eternal" within the human race
Some people die and some people conquer but a change has gotta come
Love is on the way, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Love is on the way, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Love is going along, it's going along, it's gonna take time

This is the year when we find the path and take it to the rainbow's end
And there will be no lying, 'cause the truth ain't made to bend
Some people die and some people conquer but a change has gotta come
Love is on the way, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Love is on the way, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Love is going along, it's going along, it's gonna take time
