Heal the World
[Intro:]
Think about the generations and say that we want to make it a better place for our
children, and our children's children, so that they know it's a better world for them
And think, if they can make it a better place...
[Verse 1]
There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much
Brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel
There's no hurt or sorrow
[Pre – Chorus]
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place
[Chorus]
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make it a better place
For you and for me
[Verse 2]
If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong,
it only cares for joyful giving
If we try, we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread,
we stop existing and start living
[Pre -Chorus 2]
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
So make a better world
To make a better world
[Chorus]
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make it a better place
for you and for me
[Bridge]
And the dream we were conceived in
will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed
in will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life?
Would this Earth crucify its soul?
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly
Be God's glow
[Verse 3]
We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart, I feel you are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together, we'll cry happy tears
See the nations Turn their swords into ploughshares
[Pre-Chorus 3]
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place
[Chorus]
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place For you and for me
[Post-Chorus]
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

"For Life (English Version)"
This life has twists and turns
But it's the sweetest mystery
When you're with me
We say a thousand words
But no one else is listening
I will be
Every night and every day
No matter what may come our way
We're in this thing together
The dark turns to light
We both come alive, tonight
I'm talking 'bout forever
Never gonna let you go
Giving you my heart and soul
I'll be right here with you for life
Oh, baby, all I wanna do
Is spend my every second with you
So look in my eyes
I'll be by your side
The storms may come
And winds may blow
I'll be your shelter for life
This love, this love
I mean it 'til the day I die
Oh, never gonna let you go
Giving you my heart and soul
I'll be right here with you for life
Oh, baby, all I wanna do
Is spend my every second with you
So look in my eyes
I'll be by your side
Yeah, look in my eyes
I'll be by your side
For life
