Enough
Marla Glen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't believe this
When the six o'clock news say
There are people in the streets
With no roof above their heads

And I can't
I can't believe this
The pain I feel inside
When they're wasting all our food
And there's people of this world
Are hungry too

There's enough
Life
To spread around
There's enough love
To pass down
There's enough hope
To open your eyes
Just to find
There's enough light
To shine around

And I can't
I can't believe this
The way we teach our children
When there are children
Of this world
To be taught
Oooh

And I can't
I can't believe this
The way we waste our time
When there are people
Wishing time was on their side

There's enough
Life
To spread around
There's enough love
To pass down
There's enough hope
To open your eyes
Just to find
There's enough light
To shine around

For you
And for me
Oooh yes yes

No more wars
No more hungry people children
No more suffering
Enough is enough





Enough is enough ...

Overall Meaning
