For the Children

Who'll be there to catch our dreams (oh-oh-oh)
 And who'll be there for the children? (Hey, yeah)
 Catch our dreams as they fall
 Oh angel, my sweet angel
 I see shadows 'cross the sky
 And midnight eyes are looking at the world tonight
 Lord, angel, my sweet angel
 When the truth comes down
 It's gonna rain like crazy on the children as they sleep tonight
 And who'll be there to catch their dreams as they fall, whoa
 Who'll be there for the children
 When their nightmares call?
 When their nightmares call?
 Oh angel, I've heard so many lies
 But with wars to the east
 Corruption to the west
 How the hell we ever gonna survive? (Can we survive?)
 Lord, angel, my sweet angel
 When they light those fires
 They're going to burn like forever (burn like forever)
 We're never going to see the light
 And who'll be there to catch our dreams as they fall, whoa
 Who'll be there for the children
 When their nightmares call?
 'Cause time is slipping through our fingers
 Like a storm in the desert sand
 Who can place our children's future
 In the palm of some fool's hand?
 If only I could get some answers
 I would let them all in on the plan
 So when their nightmares call (nightmares call)
 When the nightmares call, they can understand
 Lord, they can understand
 And who'll be there to catch our dreams
 Catch our dreams as they fall (as they fall)
 Who'll be there to catch our dreams (catch our dreams)
 Catch our dreams as they fall (as they fall)
 When the nightmares call
 When the nightmares call
 When the nightmares call
