Maurice White, Wade Flemmons & Don Whitehead In this new world The world of today Now you might think That the world has changed But boy meets girl Same as before And they vow their love forever more In this world today. In this new world Of troubled times Just you look back And I'm sure you'll find Man fighting man For no cause at all And though it is wrong The fighting goes on In this world today. Why do you say We're in a different bag When all the things you did Were just as bad. In this new world Of suffering Love, peace of mind Should be our thing Let man join hands The old and the young And let every heart Now beat as one In this world today. Love, peace of mind should be our thing Love, peace of mind should be our thing Love, peace of mind should be our thing.
