Unspoken Words

Somebody nods another bows
And then a hand is shaking a hand.
With little gestures and quiet moves
We try to understand.Bizu bizu face to face
There’s a story in ev’ry look.
Goodbye hello or an embrace
The face reads like a book.

Just hold on I’ll stand beside you.
I’ll help you carry the load.
When you feel sad look for the sunshine
This life’s a winding road.Words are not the only language
To feel what your eyes have heard.
The voice of your heart is speaking
With unspoken words.

Namaste salam
peaceful wishes without a sound.
Un abrazo or in a smile
Deeper meaning is found

Words are not the only language … etc.

Unfinished World

When I think of all we’ve got
All the beauty that surrounds us
Like the magic of a sunset
And the children playing around us
What lovely lovely lovely place to be.
But like the day turns into night
There’s the other side of sunrise
Where people live in cardboard houses
And you can’t help but realize
There’s still so much to do
So far to go.

It’s an unfinished world
And it’s still in the making.
It’ll take all we can give
‘cause together we all live
In an unfinished world.

I just can’t see why there can’t be
More heart to heart between the nations.
Oh but we might get closer and closer
With every generation
Take it just a little further
You and me.

It’s an unfinished world … etc.

The book’s still being written
It’s happening all the time.
Everybody’s got a chapter
Everybody writes a line.
Well we’ve got unfinished business
An unfinished symphony.
Some people got the words
Some got the melody.Sha-la-la … etc.

Unfinished symphony –
(unfinished symphony)
Take it just a little further.
(everybody in the world is needed)
Unfinished symphony –
(got so much so much to do)
Take it just a little further
(let’s take it further me and you.)
It’s an unfinished world … etc.

There’s Gonna Be Another Day

VERSE
Somewhere in the world a child is born
He starts to cry and he’s on his way.
Someone holds his tiny little form
And is heard to say, is heard to say:

CHORUS
There’s gonna be another day
And it’s not so far away.
There’s gonna be another spring,
There’ll always be another song to sing.
We’re gonna see,
There’s gonna be another day.

VERSE
When we come to a river that’s too wide,
We’ll build a bridge to the other shore.
When we come to a wall that’s too high
We’ll build a door, yeah, we’ll build a door.

CHORUS
There’s gonna be another day … etc.

Somewhere in the world a child is born
There’s gonna be another day.

The Further We Reach Out

I had a thought while they walked in the moondust
In one moment I saw,
Like warm air rising or apples falling,
Must be a natural law

The further we reach out, the closer we become (2X)

Each time we reach out beyond our knowing
Each time that we overcome
Or breach the limits of our love
We leave dreams for our little ones

The further we reach out, the closer we become (2X)

The Sound Of Peace

Is there any greater sadness than a child that’s born in fear?
What a lonely sight the world would make if the children were not here.
‘Cause they’re the universal melody the music of our soul.
We hear a symphony of heartbeats when the children say “hello”
We hear a symphony of heartbeats when the children say

See our eyes see our faces
We’re from all the different places in the world
And we share in one belief.
Hear our questions hear our choices
If you listen to our voices with your heart
You’ll hear the sound of peace.

Without us there is no future
No hope to build tomorrow
No dreams to touch the sky.
When we all sing together
We share with one another
A love that will not die.

See our eyes see our faces … etc.

The cannon and saber we’ve heard them all before.
Let the international anthem be the sound of peace not war.
It’s the sound of people showing we share in one belief.
It’s the sound of children singing this is the sound of peace.

See our eyes see our faces … etc.

If you listen to our voices with your heart
You’ll hear the sound of peace.

Someone Else’s Eyes

VERSE
If I was lookin’ through your eyes,
I wonder what I’d see.
Would I see your good and your bad?
Would I taste the sweet and the sad?
And would I understand you better
If I could see what you see?

If you were lookin’ through my eyes,
I wonder how you’d feel.
Would you ever be afraid
And hide behind the walls that I’ve made?
Would you understand it better
If you could see the things I see?

CHORUS
‘Cause there’s magic in the moment
When someone understands somebody else.
Let’s sit right down and talk about it,
Wearin’ no disguise,
‘Cause everything looks different
Sharin’ someone else’s eyes.

VERSE
If we could look out on this world,
Together feel it turn,
Seein’ it your way and mine,
It only costs a little time,
Maybe we’d understand it better
Sharin’ someone else’s eyes.

CHORUS

If I was lookin’ through your eyes,
I wonder what I’d see.

Sing Your Song

There’s an old man by the subway train
With his old guitar, you pass him every day.
Today’s the first time you stop and listen,
As you’re reachin’ for change in your pocket, he says

You know that each of us
Has a song to sing, a story to tell, now.
Come on and share your heart,
Invite the world to sing along, come on now

This is my song,
Tell me what’s wrong with singin’ it for the world.
This is the time for minds to meet the call,
My song’s for one and all.
Oh… oh… Sing your song.

Girl sits on a broken wall,
Her young eyes, they’ve seen it all.
Her spirit won’t sway, she stands up to say,
Today is the day, ‘cause nothing stands in our way,

You know that each of us
Has a song to sing, a story to tell, now.
Come on and share your heart,
Invite the world to sing along, come on now

This is our song … etc.

My song, is my way of telling you just who I am.
Happy or sad, the life that I have, good or bad.
It’s your attitude that you choose.
Wherever you may live, and whoever you might be,
Add your voice to mine in harmony.

Woah woah woah, a song for the world.
Sing Out! Come on!
Sing your song.

Shine The Light

VERSE
I was watchin’ the news today
So many struggle to live
We’re all in this world together
There’s so much I can give

PRE-CHORUS
So lets raise up the curtains
And focus the light
On our brothers and sisters
And do what is right

CHORUS
There are people out there who do more than their share
They reach out a hand, lift up their fellow man
Let the world see their fight, they’re turnin’ wrong into right
Lets all take a cue from the unselfish work that they do
And then let’s shine the light
Shine the light (x 2)

VERSE
There is so much that we can do
Its not as hard as it seems
Find a way to help others live
Help find someone’s dreams

PRE-CHORUS
So lets raise up the curtains
Refocus the light
On the whole human family
And do what is right

CHORUS

BRIDGE
It’s not impossible
To change this world
Just start with you and me
Every man woman boy and girl

CHORUS

Shine On, Shine Man

See a man standin’ there with a smile and a rag and he’s waitin’ just for you.
Ev’rybody comes from miles around just to see what he can do.
He sets you down, puts your foot up, pops a boot-black ready to go.
You can close your eyes and listen,
Listen to the shine man go.

Shine man (x 3)
Shine on, shine man (x 2)
Shine man

Left his home with a rag and a shoe box and he’s just thirteen or so.
He can tell you more about folks and things than anybody else I know.
Elbows flyin’ and a rag a-poppin’, that beat comin’ over you,
‘Cross the way another shine man is getting’ his licks in too
And it sounds like this:

Shine man … etc.

Save The Dancer

The ravages of human history,
The savageness of our sword.
Are as much of our legacy
As the heights we have explored.
It seems our questing for paradise
Is dressed in paradox,
Grown-ups playing with power
Like children playing with blocks

But through the triumph and the tragedy,
Rising like a bird
Is a dancer always dancing,
A dancer always dancing
To a tune we’ve never heard –
Save the dancer.

Lifting us and twirling inside us,
A dream is setting us free,
Through the darkness a dancing image,
The hope of things that could be,
For the lonely and little children,
The angry and the proud,
For the old man whose sight is failing,
The quiet face in the crowd.

Through the triumph and the tragedy … etc.

For the dreamers and the make-believers,
The festive and the sad,
For the mad and the ugly,
The sane and beautiful,
Save the dancer, save the dancer in us all,

Through the darkness, a dancing image,
The hope what could be –
Save the dancer.
