比較美好的世界 A Better World (Sichuan Earthquake Relief) – Featuring S.H.E, One Million Stars, Power Station, TANK, Fahrenheit
總該想一些方法、讓人們能繼續相愛
我們到這個世界上來不是來互相傷害
把笑聲還給哭泣、把擁抱還給猜疑
把光還給暗、甜還給苦、安慰還給恐懼
每顆心溫度熱一些、冰冷的就會融解
我們可以給彼此一個比較溫暖的 比較美好的世界
一定有甚麼辦法讓明天還值得期待
不能幫太陽爬升上來、至少幫一朵花開
把眼睛還給眺望、把天空還給翅膀
路還給勇敢、海還給船、小孩還給夢想
每雙手付出多一些、不變的就會改變
下一次我們再見、約在比較快樂的 比較美好的世界
愛能夠慢慢地完美、這個人間的殘缺
下一次我們再見、約在比較和平的 比較美好的世界
