Welcome to the human race
                               
With it's wars, disease and brutality
                
You with your innocence and grace
                           
With still some pride and dignity
                 
To a world in decline

                        
Welcome to the special place
                        
In a heart of stone it's cold and grey
                
You with your angelface
          
Keep the dispair, babe, and send it away

                         
Show me the meaning of the world
                         
Show me the meaning of the world
                          
'Cause I've heard so much about it
                          
Now, I don't wanna live without it
                          
Now, I don't wanna live without it

         
Oh, I want love
         
Oh, I want love
              
Oh, I want love

                      
Welcome if I'm out of space
                    
The milky way's still in your eyes
                     
You find yourself a hopeless case
                      
When you're seeking perfection on earth
                   
As some kind of rebirth

                         
Show me the meaning of the world
                         
Show me the meaning of the world
                          
'Cause I've heard so much about it
                          
Don't make me live without it

         
Oh, I want love
         
Oh, I want love
         
Oh, I want love
