And if you listen now
You might hear
A new sound coming in
as an old one disappears
See the world
In just one grain of sand
You'd better take a closer look
Don't let it slip right through your hand
Won't you please hear the call
The world says
Put the message in the box
Put the box into the car
Drive the car around the world
Until you get heard
Now is the moment
Please understand
The road is wide open to
the heart of every woman and man
A few simple words
So a mule can understand
You don't want tomorrow
If it's just crumbling into sand
Won't you please hear the call
She says
Put the message in the box
Put the box into the car
Drive the car around the world
Until you get heard
Until you get heard
ย
The world says
Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
Cuz I'm waiting right here with my open arms
She says give a little bit
Give a little bit of your soul to me
Cuz I'm waiting to behold your many charms
Is that love in the air?
She says
Put the message in the box
Put the box into the car
Drive the car around the world
Until you get heard
Until you get heard
Until you get heard
Until you get heard
Until you get heard
