She's a bright and gentle child

Full of hopes and dreams

Innocent and willing to believe

That what she has today,

Will still be here tomorrow

But that way of thinking is naive



'Cause the way the world is heading,

Her future is in doubt

And everyday we're losing things she can't live without

We need to start preserving what God gave Mother Earth

Save some for me and my sister



The air we breathe, the food we eat,

The rivers running to the sea

The animals, the plants that heal

The raining forests in Brazil

Save some for me and my sister



He's a good and honest child

Worthy of the best

Of everything that life can bring his way

Already making plans

He's confident and certain

Of what he'll be when he grows up someday



But the way the world is heading,

His future is in doubt

And everyday we're losing things he can't live without

We need to start preserving what God gave to Mother Earth

Save some for me and my brother



The air we breathe, the food we eat

The rivers running to the sea

The animals, the plants that heal,

The raining forests of Brazil

Save some for me and my brother



Save some for me

Save some for me and my sister and my brother
