Lyrics

Sometimes I don't understand
Feels like I'm living in world gone mad
Look around, all around it's just the same people
Just rush everywhere
No time to ever take the time to care
We're the ones, we're the losers in this game
So where is the tenderness
We sacrifice for progress?
And where is the love we need?
You know it makes me wonder
What if everybody, what if everybody reached out with one hand? (Reached with just one hand)
What if everybody, what if everybody sang out with one voice? (Sang out with one voice)
Maybe we could chase this (Woah-oh-oh)
What if everybody, what if everybody cared with just one heart? (Cared with just one heart)
What if everybody, what if everybody tried to light one spark? (Tried to light one spark)
Maybe we could chase this
What if, I said, what if we turned our love around somehow?
Somehow it's all up to us
Gotta take this world and make it a world of love
We gotta do it now, we gotta find a way to make the change
Oh, make the change
There's gotta be a way
For us to make it better, yeah
What if everybody, what if everybody reached out with one hand?
What if everybody, what if everybody sang out with one voice? (Sang with just one voice)
Maybe we could chase this (Oh-woah)
What if everybody, what if everybody cared with just one heart? (One heart)
What if everybody, what if everybody tried to light one spark? (Tried to light one spark)
Maybe we could chase this
Here in the heart, oh, the answer's there
If we only would look there inside
Yeah (We can make it better)
Oh, yeah (We can make it better)
Yeah (We can make it better)
Only if we stay together (We can make it better)
(We can make it better) Yeah
(We can make it better) We can make it better
(We can make it better) If we try together
Try to make it better
Oh, yes, we do, mm-hmm
If we stay together, yeah
What if everybody, what if everybody reached out with one hand? (Woo!)
What if everybody, what if everybody sang out with one voice?
Maybe we could chase this (Woah-oh-oh)
What if everybody, what if everybody cared with just one heart? (Cared with just one heart)
What if everybody, what if everybody tried to light one spark? (Tried to light one spark)
Maybe we could chase this
What if everybody, what if everybody reached out with one hand?
(We could make it better, so everybody sing out loud)
What if everybody, what if everybody sang out with one voice?
What if everybody, what if everybody (We could make it better; Everybody)
(Gotta find a way to make a change)
What if everybody, what if everybody
Maybe we'll change the world
What if everybody, what if everybody (Maybe we'll change the world, oh)
What if everybody, what if everybody
Maybe we'll change the world (Everybody; What if)
What if everybody, what if everybody (Everybody, what if)
What if everybody, what if everybody
Maybe we'll change the world (What if)
