Cynthia Manan

I lie awake at night
Hoping that someone can hear my plea

That someone above can show me
Something that I can see

Walking down the beaten path I ask myself
It doesn't make any sense

But I hear a small voice inside
That you can start again

You have a song in your heart
Something to be shared

A dream that's alive
Just try and you'll get there

If I could sing a song for the world, then it would be
A song for peace and love and harmony.

To cherish all the moments we hold so dear
And only cry those happy tears.

Let's not use weapons to fight, but fight instead
To bring together every woman and man.

That each child grows up and knows their worth,
So they can shine their blessings on earth.

Everyone is born with special gifts sent from above;
It's time to use them all and spread the love.
