We watch our love flying back to the sky
We never smile and yet we wonder why
Our lives have become such a gray day
We watch our loved ones walk away
We never laugh and yet we wonder why
Another good thing slips away every day
To love is not to give the world
To love is not in diamonds and pearls
To love is to share, to be there
To love is to hold a heart in your hands
To share the little things that make us us
We watch our dreams ebb and fade away
We never hope and yet we wonder why
Our lives feel emptier each passing day
We watch our fortunes waste away
We never share and yet we wonder why
Our lives remain unhappy each passing day
To dream is never to give up
To hope is always to look up
To dream is to seek the light
To hope is to yearn for tomorrow
That your dreams may light the world
Every day that passes by sees a tear fall
Every trial cast our way hears a voice call
Every shadow thirsts for light on its way
Every heart in its own way aches for love
Every day, every soul begs to be free
And every person tries to live their dream
If we cared more, fewer tears would fall
If we helped more, fewer voices would call
If we loved more, fewer shadows would be cast
If we listened more, if we laughed more
If we paused to appreciate one another
Then dreams wouldn't crash, hopes wouldn't fail
And every day would be a happy song.
hiyo ni poa
