Lyrics
We Are One
In the silence of the morning light
As the universe ducks out of sight
And an awesome world around you shows
All it?s secrets that still no-one knows
Many millions in our cities walk
Taking chances trying to beat the clock
While the other side of this old world
In the jungle night walks the jungle girl
And all the children are here beneath the same sun
And I just want to know if we are one
Well many people die before their time
Wars and accidents and bitter crime
And it doesn?t change as time goes by
Though the light is just before our eyes
And all the children are here beneath the same sun
Oh I just want to know if we are one
Yeah the world grows closer day by day
There?s no room to move to anymore
We have run as far as we can go
We must turn and open up the doors
And all the children are here beneath the same sun
Oh I just want to know if we are one
When darling go to show that we are one
