When I was a young boy, mama taught me
Hate is heavy, love is weightless
When I was a young boy, my father taught me
In darkest moments, come human greatness
I'm thinking 'bout the end of the world
If you're in my arms, I'll be okay, okay
I'm thinking 'bout shooting stars
'Cause they light up the dark
Even as they fall and break
I don't know what is coming
Tomorrow morning
But I know one thing
If we carry each other (each other)
There's no hit we can't take
When I was a young boy, mama taught me
Hate is heavy, love is weightless
When I was a young boy, my father taught me
In darkest moments, come human greatness

I'm thinking 'bout the way of the world
The boys and the girls
Who dream big, dream big
We're all somebody's son or
Someone's daughter
See, we're not so different
When stormy weather's calling
And the sky is falling
I'll tell you one thing
We're gonna pick up the pieces
Think of it this way
When I was a young boy, mama taught me
Hate is heavy but love is weightless
When I was a young boy, my father taught me
In darkest moments, come human greatness
