音乐咖啡厅:The World's Greatest 做世界最棒的 献给奥运

英文歌词:

Yea, uh, yea uh, this is the world's greatest,
Yea uh, this is the world's greatest

I am a mountain
I am a tall tree
Oh, I am a swift¹ wing
Sweeping² the country
I am a river
Down in the valley
Oh, I am a vision³
And I can see clearly
If anybody ask you who I am
Just stand up tall
Look 'em in the face and say...

I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's up against the rope
I Can feel it
I'm the world's greatest
The world's greatest, the world's greatest, forever

I am a giant
I am an eagle
Oh, I am a lion
Down in the jungle
I am a marching band
I am the people
Oh, I am a helping⁴ hand
And I am a hero
If anybody ask you who I am
Just stand up tall
Look 'em in the face and say...

I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's up against the rope
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

In the ring of life I rain love
And the world will notice a key (oh yeaaaaa)
Where there is darkness I shine light (shine light)
And mirrors of success reflect in me (me)

I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's up against the rope
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's up against the rope
I Can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's up against the rope
I Can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

And it's the greatest
Can you feel it
(Can you feel it)
(Say the greatest)
It's the greatest
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
See I'm so alive
It's the greatest
At the end of a tunnel
Can you feel it
Believe in a pot of gold
It's the greatest
At the end of a rainbow
Can you feel it...
And faith was right there
To pull me through yeah
It used to be locked doors
Now I can just walk through
Hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
It's the greatest
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it, hmm
I'm the world's greatest
