Here is our draft of I Don't Want To Save The World. We are pretty unsure about one verse in the chorus... Otherwise it wasn't too hard to hear what Peter and Anna are singing. Anyway, please anyone check this out Wink

If I were your hero,
I'd know what was best
Together we could make history
We're walking a tight rope
That's what you said
In search of some peace and harmony
If we are the answer
Prove to me your willingness

(chorus)
I don't want to save the world
Think I'll quit while I'm ahead
In this movie that I live
I'm much better off instead
I don't want to save the world
But it seems we're an awful long way // ...we're an awful long ways // ...we're enough on our ways
from Kansas
I don't know how I'd catch you if you fell
There is no direction to get homeward

Who'd be the keeper
Of the universe
The heir to our new technology
Help us to teach us how to help ourselves
Did you know how much you mean to me?
We are just children
Longing to stay free

(chorus)
