I wanna believe
There's good inside of all of us
That a child is born
Without a demon to her name
Later on, when the child is grown And she learns to hate the Other
It's only fear, passing through
With a different face
As far as we know
We ain't too different
You and I
Could
Spend all our time
And make this world a better ride
Imagine the difference if we tried
I wanna believe
The world is mine to roam
That I can run anywhere
When I learn to spread my wings.
And with no regard to the land of my fathers
Or the color in my expression
You will open your heart, open your mind
And let me in
As far as we know
We ain't too different
You and I
Could
Spend all our time
And make this world a better ride
Imagine the difference if we tried
Come out from your corners
There is so much more that we could do
As sisters and brothers (Rather than)
Strangers living life in parallel
Help me believe again
So tell me, tell me "Someday
We'll lay down the guns
And put Love
Back on Her rightful throne!"
Cuz I know that I'm not alone
In being afraid of the way we're goin'
And you know that it takes a village
To make a safer home
As far as we know
We ain't too different
You and I
Should
Spend all our time
And make this world a better ride
Imagine the difference if we tried
