Lyrics Angélique Kidjo

Angélique Kidjo

We Are One

As you go through life you'll see

There is so much that we

Don't understand

And the only thing we know

Is things don't always go

The way we planned

[But you'll see every day]

[That we'll never turn away]

When it seems all your dreams come undone

[We will stand by your side]

[Filled with hope and filled with pride]

We are more than we are

We are one

If there's so much I must be

Can I still just be me

The way I am?

Can I trust in my own heart

Or am I just one part

Of some big plan?

[Even those who are gone]

[Are with us as we go on]

Your journey has only begun

[Tears of pain, tears of joy]

[One thing nothing can destroy]

Is our pride, deep inside

We are one

[We are one, you and I]

[We are like the earth and sky]

One family under the sun

[All the wisdom to lead]

[All the courage that you need]

You will find when you see

We are one
