The wind in my hair and the sun in my eyes This is the life that I have chose I must keep running until I fold I can't live with the lies that some people have told Send my mother a lock of my hair Send my father the ribbons he gave me Tell them I hate it to say "Fare thee well" But I can't live with lies that some people tell Why can't the world be like little yellow roses? Lies they don't know, truth only they grow I've always believed all men are equal Whatever color, religion or land I can't stand still and watch it destroyed So I'll keep running 'til it's forever banned Send my mother a lock of my hair Send my father the ribbons he gave me Tell them I hate it to say "Fare thee well" But I can't live with lies some people tell Why can't the world be like little yellow roses? Lies they don't know, truth only they grow
