by Diane Warren



Sometimes I don't understand

Feels like I'm living in a 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've sacrificed for progress

And where's the love we need

You know it makes me wonder



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 with just one voice)

Maybe we could change things

What if everybody what if everybody

Cared with just one heart (cared with their own heart)

What if everybody what if everybody

Tried to light one spark (tried to light one spark)

Maybe we could change things somehow

Somehow it's all up to us



Gotta take this world make it a world of love

Gotta do it now

Gotta find a way to make a change somehow

There's gotta be a way for us to make it better



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 with just one voice)

Maybe we could change things

What if everybody what if everybody

Cared with just one heart (cared with their own heart)

What if everybody what if everybody

Tried to light one spark (tried to light one spark)

Maybe we could change things somehow



Here in our hearts

Oh the answer is there

If only we would look there inside them

We can make it better, we can make it better...

If we try together



(Repeat Chorus)
