Code Of Ethics
(Dedicated to the Athletes of the 1984 Olympics) Music by Alan Paul, Randy Waldman & Wayne Johnson Lyrics by Alan Paul There's an infinity of ways And just as many people striving for them, oh Who's to say what is wrong or right Only we can judge what lies within us It's our code of life So much is counting on what we say So many virtues that we must weigh Where's the light we long for love must find a way And all things in their time will follow, oh.... It's like a wave of honor in motion, floating away, It's like an overwhelming emotion, one and the same If we take the time to find it We can help define a way uncharted Code of ethics, feel it Stand, be counted SongtexteLife is only what we make it So don't fake it Just make it right Like a visionary's dream There's a cry for truth we need to know Is it life or a novel's theme Underlying codes we'd live or die for It's a mystery Violence is growing, it's in the air People are starving while others stare Where's the light we long for? Love must find a way And all things in their time will follow - oh If we take the time to find it We can help define a way uncharted Code of ethics, feel it Stand, be counted Life is only what we make it So don't fake it Just make it right Code of ethics, live it Stand, be counted Life is only what we make it So don't fake it Just make it right Aus Songtexte Mania
