"Lovers" lyrics

There've been better times, there've been worse
Almost heaven, sometimes hell on earth
Humans love to think, hate to agree
So the world is a playground for the military

And you and I, to history, yeah, we are so small
And in the universe, do we matter at all?
I believe we are the best
We are the height by which to measure the rest

We are lovers (we are lovers)
The truth is alive and well with us
And the future relies on those who are wise
And brave enough to trust
To give it all, so follow us
We are lovers

A baby's born today, gun in hand
Do worry, hell no, we sell them the ammo
Hey, we need the cash, jobs, yes indeed
But they're shooting our children, this money bleeds

We're not goody-goodies
We're not bleeding hearts
We are lovers

Enough to trust
To give it all, so follow us
Ooh, in a world of ideas
Love is better than others
We are lovers (we are lovers)
(Those of us wise enough, brave enough)
Enough to trust
To give it all, so follow us

We are lovers (we are lovers)
We are lovers, lovers
We are lovers (we are lovers)
We are lovers, lovers
We are lovers
We are the height by which to measure the rest
