"There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones..."
from "Brothers in Arms" by Dire Straits

"Now looking back at all we've had
We let so many dreams just slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long, before we see?
How sad the answers to those questions can be..."

"And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could, oh..."
from "Running Up That Hill" by Kate Bush
Album: "Hounds of Love" - 1985
Kate Bush has said: "I was trying to say that, really, a man and a woman, can't understand each other because we are a man and a woman. And if we could actually swap each other's roles, if we could actually be in each other's place for a while, I think we'd both be very surprised!..."
"That until that day
The dream of lasting peace,
World citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never attained
Now everywhere is war - war..."
from "War" by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Album: "Rastaman Vibration" - 1976
The lyrics are almost literally derived from a speech made by Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie I before the United Nations General Assembly in 1963.
"I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in fields of gold..."
from "Fields of Gold" by Sting
Album: "Ten Summoner's Tales" - 1993
This song is about life: love, marriage and death.
