[Verse]
 And you ask me what I want this year
 And I try to make this kind and clear
 Just a chance that maybe we’ll find better days

          
 ‘Cause I don’

t need boxes w

rapped in stri

ngs
        
 And designer 

love and empty

 things
             
 Just a chance

             
 that maybe we

              
’ll find bette

  
r days

[Chorus]
             
  So take thes

            
e words and si

ng out loud
             
 ‘Cause everyo

         
ne is forgiven

 now
             
 ‘Cause tonigh

              
t’s the night 

             
the world begi

                 
ns again

[Verse]
        
 And in some p

lace simple wh

ere we could l

ive
     
 And something

 only you can 

give
             
 And that’s fa

              
ith and trust 

             
and peace whil

           
e we’re alive

            
 And the one p

oor child who 

saved this wor

ld
             
 And there’s t

en million mor

e who probably

 could
             
 If we all jus

              
t stopped and 

             
said a prayer 

        
for them

[Chorus]
             
  So take thes

            
e words and si

ng out loud
             
 ‘Cause everyo

         
ne is forgiven

 now
            
 ‘Cause tonigh

              
t’s the night
