Say you, say me say it for always That's the way it should be Say you, say me say it together Naturally I had a dream I had an awesome dream People in the park playing games in the dark And what they played was a masquerade And from behind of walls of doubt a voice was crying out Say you, say me it for always That's the way it should be Say you, say me say it together Naturally As we go down life's lonesome highway Seems the hardest thing to do is to find a friend or two That helping hand Some one who understands That when you feel you've lost your way You've got some one there to say I'll show you Say you, say me it for always That's the way it should be Say you, say me say it together Naturally So you think you know the answers, Oh no Well the whole world has got you dancing That's right, I'm telling you It's time to start believing oh yes Believing who you are You are a shining star Say you, say me it for always Oh that's the way it should be Say you, say me say it together Naturally Say it together, naturally
