Is There a Difference - Howard Jones

Is there a difference between yes and no

Is there a difference between up and down

Must I fear what others fear

What nonsense

Some people are content

Enjoying things that belong to tradition

With the seasons they cast their lot

Without a question

Other men are clear and bright and solid

Other men are sharp and clever and jolly

And we go wo oh oh wo oh oh oh wo

Is there a difference between high and low

Is there a difference between then and now

Do we have to live in pain and fear

What nonsense

People are drifting like the waves on the sea

Without direction like the restless wind

Not knowing forward not knowing back

Just existing

Other men are strong and full of courage

Other men are witty and full of knowledge

And we go wo oh oh wo oh oh wo

Other men are clear and bright and solid

I alone am drifting on the sea

Other men are sharp and clever and jolly

Restless like the wind

And we go wo oh oh wo oh oh wo

Is there a difference

Is there really a difference

Yes and no

Is there a difference

Up and down

Is there a difference

High and low

Is there a difference

Then and now

Is there a difference

Yes and no

Is there a difference

Up and down

Is there a difference
