Difference
Shawn Desman
"This world could be so beautiful, if we just worked together to make a difference today."
Listen to this song by a Canadian singer about the poverty in the Philippines and let your hearts be touched by its lyrics. We may all seek inspiration and gain awareness that poverty is indeed an issue needing concern.
Lyrics:
"Difference"
What is it that we have to do to change this world?
What can I do? What can you do?
[Verse 1]
Sitting at home all alone just watching my t.v
The news comes on the world’s gone wrong
That’s how it seems to me
See people dying , people crying, got no food to eat
It ain’t my life so tell me why it means so much to me?
Let’s try to open our hearts
It’s not too late to make a brand new start
[Chorus]
Here and now, I believe
There are solutions to the problems we see
We should all take a chance
Don’t be afraid to lend a helping hand
This world could be so beautiful,
If we just worked together to make a difference today.
[Verse 2]
Lalalalala la…oh
Oh yeah yeah
I took a walk down by the school yard where I used to play
Now there’s no children only people spending wasted days
The same old lady holds her hand out by the corner store
I always give her what I can you know she still needs more
Let’s try to open our hearts
It’s not too late to make a brand new start
[Chorus]
Here and now, I believe
There are solutions to the problems we see
We should all take a chance
Don’t be afraid to lend a helping hand
This world could be so beautiful,
If we just worked together to make a difference today.
Just gotta make a difference
Yay yeah
[Bridge]
Open up your eyes
Don’t you realize they need you
Let’s not run away, listen when I say
That I believe, if we just opened our hearts
It’s not too late to make a brand new start
[Chorus]
Here and now, I believe
There are solutions to the problems we see (problems we see)
We should all take a chance (take a chance)
Don’t be afraid to lend a helping hand (a helping hand)
This world could be so beautiful,
If we just worked together to make …
Here and now, (here and now), I believe
There are solutions to the problems we see (problems we see)
We should all take a chance (just take a chance)
Don’t be afraid to lend a helping hand (a helping hand)
This world could be so beautiful, (so beautiful baby)
If we just worked together to make,
A difference today … hey…
