The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Go swiftly The flags and drums can hypnotize When glory has faded the dream is worth more than the prize A twisting, turning flame Of freedom burning bright Knows all of the names And all of the games of the yellow, black and white We gotta have faith To work it out Faith and hope Without a doubt Give us strength to make a start Put a song in our hearts... We're never gonna break down walls And build a prison with the stone 'Cause you and I know what this is worth We're gonna build heaven on earth We're running in the wheels of fortune Turning water into wine We're gonna take love and make it shine We're gonna find peace in our time... Softly, softly When there is lightning in the sky When rivers are rising and trouble rolls in on the tide We'll keep on keeping on 'Til all the tears are dry We'll weather the storm and welcome the dawn Of tomorrow you and I... We've gotta have faith...(faith) And get it fast Faith and hope...(hope) And let it last Give us strength...(strength) To reach the stars, put a song in our hearts. At the sign...(sign) of the dove...(love) Is gonna shine...(shine) shine (shine) shine On a wing...(sing) and a prayer...(yeah) We'll be fine...(fine) fine (fine) fine... People! People! Do you believe in what you see Surrounded by fire and magic are you really free It's heating! Heating up! Along the avenue We're raisin' the dust it's heaven or bust We will see this dream come true We're gonna have faith...(faith) The road will be long Now there's hope...(hope) To carry us on We'll have strength...(strength) We'll never go wrong, with this song in our hearts
