歌词：

Song：Difference
Artist：Shawn Desman

What is it that we have to do to change this world?
What can I do? What can you do?

[Verse 1]

Sitting at home all alone just watching my t.v
The news comes on the world’s gone wrong
That’s how it seems to me
See people dying¹ , people crying, got no food to eat
It ain’t my life so tell me why it means² so much to me?
Let’s try to open our hearts
It’s not too late to make a brand³ new start

[Chorus]

Here and now, I believe
There are solutions to the problems we see
We should all take a chance
Don’t be afraid to lend a helping⁴ hand
This world could be so beautiful,
If we just worked together to make a difference today.

[Verse 2]

Lalalalala la…oh
Oh yeah yeah
I took a walk down by the school yard where I used⁵ to play
Now there’s no children only people spending wasted days
The same old lady holds her hand out by the corner store
I always give her what I can you know she still needs more
Let’s try to open our hearts
It’s not too late to make a brand new start

[Chorus]

Here and now, I believe
There are solutions to the problems we see
We should all take a chance
Don’t be afraid to lend a helping hand
This world could be so beautiful,
If we just worked together to make a difference today.

Just gotta make a difference
Yay yeah

[Bridge]

Open up your eyes
Don’t you realize they need you
Let’s not run away, listen when I say
That I believe, if we just opened our hearts
It’s not too late to make a brand new start

[Chorus]

Here and now, I believe
There are solutions to the problems we see (problems we see)
We should all take a chance (take a chance)
Don’t be afraid to lend a helping hand (a helping hand)
This world could be so beautiful,
If we just worked together to make …
Here and now, (here and now), I believe
There are solutions to the problems we see (problems we see)
We should all take a chance (just take a chance)
Don’t be afraid to lend a helping hand (a helping hand)
This world could be so beautiful, (so beautiful baby)
If we just worked together to make,

A difference today … hey…
