The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
There are times I find it hard to sleep at night We are living through such troubled times And every child that reaches out For someone to hold For one moment They become my own And how can I pretend that I don't know What's going on? When every second And every minute Another soul is gone And I believe that in my life I will see An end to hopelessness Or giving up Or suffering Then we all stand together this one time Then no one will get left behind And stand up for life Stand up And here me sing Stand up For love I'm inspired And hope For each and everyday That's how I know that things are going to change So how can I pretend that I don't know What's going on? When every second And every minute Another soul is gone And I believe that in my life I will see An end to hopelessness Or giving up Or suffering If we all stand together this one time Then no one will get left behind And stand up for life Stand up For love And it all starts right here And it starts right now One person stand up man! And the rest will follow From the forgotten And From the Unloved I'm gonna sing this song, And I believe That in my life I will see An end to hopelessness Or giving up Or suffering If we all stand together this one time Then no one will get left behind And stand up For life Stand up And sing Stand up For love
