What Are We Made Of Songtext

von Brian May

[What are we made of?]
Can we know what we will be?
(What are we made of?)
[Think again]

There's a wind of change is blowing
There's a fire deep inside
There's a place we could be going
If we could only get it right
And the river keeps on flowing
And the morning lights the sky
{But if they said it would be easy}
{I guess they must have lied}

[What are we made of?]
Can we know what we will be?
[What are the chances]
I can find a better path, [a better life], {a better me?}
(What are we made of?)
[If you think you know the answer]
[Turn around, think again]

Whatever were you thinking?
Could you turn you life around?
When you know your world is sinking
Can you find the solid ground?
Is there really a road to heaven?
[We'll find it]
And a road leads down below
[Some way, somewhere]
Does anything really matter?
{If only we could know}

[What are we made of?]
Is it written in the sand?
[Where are we sailing?]
{To a strange and distant land}
{Take my hand, sail with me}

(What are we made of?)
['Cos I have to understand]

[What are we made of?]
Can we know what we will be?
[What are the chances]
{There's a place for you and me?}

(What are we made of?)
[Just for this moment, take your life into your hands]
[You'll decide what you are made of]
What it is that you can be
[Think again, my friend]
[Turn around, think again.]
