1. If we want someone to listenMaybe we should change the way we talkYeah, we may have a lot to sayBut words alone won’t teach them how to walkWe wanna make a differenceAnd help them find their wayIf they know that we love themThey might wanna make a change
We could start the fire burning in their heartsWe could be the light shining through the darkWe could be the friend that’s there every time they callWe don’t need to yell, we don’t gotta shoutWe can be the hand that picks them off the groundWe can show them without saying anything at all
2. In a world that’s always changingIt’s hard to find a sturdy place to standBut we can be the house that’s on the rockAnd show it’s so much better than the sandYeah we wanna make a differenceAnd bring them to the truthIf we live a life of meaningThey’ll wanna have what we have too
We could start the fire burning in their heartsWe could be the light shining through the darkWe could be the friend that’s there every time they callWe don’t need to yell, we don’t gotta shoutWe can be the hand that picks them off the groundWe can show them without saying anything at all
They need to know we care about them first’Cause our actions speak much louder than our words
We could start the fire burning in their heartsWe could be the light shining through the darkWe could be the friend that’s there every time they call
I will start the fire burning in their heartsI will be the light shining through the darkI will be the friend that’s there every time they callI’m not gonna yell, I’m not gonna shoutI will be the hand that picks them off the groundI can show them without saying anything at allWithout saying anything at all
