Listen, I can hear the voice
I need a helping hand
Just to beat the void
I need a mission, a dream to stop me talking to myself
And now the silence is broken
And my soul is to sell
I need to pick up the pieces
To scatter to the wind
Hold the city to your ears
You can hear the wind come in

But you can't change the world with a song
And you can't make it right when it's wrong

I can't stop this music travelling round with me wherever I go
It's playing for you
I can't stop this voice unravelling round me whatever I do
It's talking to you
The world dances to the rhythm of its own heart beating for you 
However you lose
So speak to me, believe, believe, believe me

Don't let it slip, through your fingertips
When there's a ghost
Don't try to reason with it
Because now I'm tired, I'm wired, so I won't miss a thing
I rope my words out to dry and I've forgotten what to sing

But you can't change the world with a song
You can't make it right when it's wrong

I can't stop this music travelling round with me wherever I go
It's playing for you
I can't stop this voice unravelling round me whatever I do
It's talking to you
The world dances to the rhythm of its own heart beating for you 
However you lose
So speak to me, believe, believe, believe me

If that's what it was to you
Then that's what it was to me
If that's what it was to you
Then that's what it was to me
If that's what it was to you
Then that's what it was to me

But you can't change the world with a song 
You can't make it right when it's wrong

I can't stop this music travelling round with me wherever I go
It's playing for you
I can't stop this voice unravelling round me whatever I do
It's talking to you
The world dances to the rhythm of its own heart beating for you 
However you lose
So speak to me, believe, believe, believe me
Believe, believe, believe me
