The work is too heavy for one person alone
And each day it just seems to increase
But when carried by many
Oh how light it becomes…taking it peace by piece.
The world we are building for our families to share
Is made up of our words and our deeds
For the sake of our children we must build it with care…building
it peace by piece.
Taking it peace by piece 'til we bring this world together
Peace by piece 'til we find release…peace by piece.
Some people may tell you that it's useless to try
All your efforts are dust in the breeze
But little by little
We just might stem the tide…taking it peace by -
There are millions of weapons in hundreds of lands
And each moment their numbers increase
But with love in our hearts and with tools in our hands
We'll dismantle them peace by piece.
Taking it peace by piece 'til we bring this world together
Peace by piece 'til we find release…peace by piece.
