[Verse 1]
Sun going down in the USA
Down on Main there's a family sleeping in a doorway
Around the corner you can hear the sound
People dancing around the golden calf
Those who have not, those who have

[Verse 2]
On the billboards and the TV screens
They got food and cars, toys and trucks and jeans
Like a homeless child's fitful dreams
Smiling faces free from wanting
Life's abundances beyond counting (Yeah)

[Chorus]
World in motion—speed your changes
Close your distances, find your angels
Lose your fears and meet your dangers
World in motion

[Bridge]
Once we were running through smoke and fire
Running into the sun
In the rush of youth, for love and truth
Our deeds were done
Now we awake with a world at stake
And a race we run
We run
[Verse 3]
Sun going down on the USA
Sun coming up a hundred years away
On another world and another time
Things like hunger, greed and hatred
One way or another, gonna be eradicated

[Chorus]
World in motion—speed your changes
Close your distances, drive your angels
Lose your fears and meet your dangers
World in motion

[Post-Chorus]
'Til the world I look out at this world and see
Is the world I know this world can be
Ooh, you have a volunteer in me
Now come on
