Do you know what noise awakes you 
Every morning from your bed 
A-coming from the farthest hillside 
A-coming from inside your head 

You have heard 
You have heard the loudest sound 
In this and every world you can think of 

[Chorus:]
Louder than tanks on the highway 
Louder than bombers in flight 
Louder than noises of hatred 
Dancing us from darkest night is the rhythm of love 
Powered on the the beating of hearts 

And did you know you had this power? 
Drumming on it always stays 
Never try to use it badly 
Tunes of good are all it plays 

You have heard 
You have heard the loudest sound 
In this and every world you can visit 

[Chorus]

For a heart without love is a song with no words 
And a tune to which no-one is listening 
So your heart must give love and you'll find that 
You shine like rain on the leaves you'll be glistening 

You have heard 
You have heard the loudest sound 
In this and every world you can think of 

Louder than thoughts of dictators 
Louder than rattling swords 
Louder than loading of rifles 
Louder than screaming warlords 

[Chorus]
