LET’S KEEP IT THAT WAY
(Desmond O'Connor / J Denby-Watson)
Paul Rich w/ Lou Praeger & His Orchestra

Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way

(Musical Break)

We stood together
Through stormy weather
And every heart was torn
The guns were flashing
The world was crashing
But out of the darkness a new world was born

The city lights are shining
The children laugh and play
The countryside is peaceful
Let’s keep it that way

Inside a million windows
They put a sign to say
A welcome home to someone
Let’s keep it that way

No more must mothers sigh
Nor sweethearts walk alone
Let’s put their happiness
Above the things we own

Some gave so much remember
How can we best repay
Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way.

(Musical Break)

Some gave so much remember
How can we best repay
Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way.
