I'm so glad to be here tonight and I'm so glad to be home. 
And I believe I've got a message for every woman and 
Every man here tonight that ever needed somebody to love 
Someone to stay with them all the time, when they're 
Up and when they're down. You know, sometimes you get what you want 
And then you go and lose what you have 
And I believe every woman and every man here tonight listen to my song 
And it save the whole world. 
Listen to me.
