Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. We fell asleep now here we are In this world among the stars Never knowing just how far we’ve come Trying to understand it all Rising everytime we fall Reaching out and learning how to love There’s sadness and joy Pleasure and pain And though we’re all so different We’re strangely all the same
We’re just people Sent here from heaven We’re just people living, breathing souls With beating hearts and crying eyes Yearning for a better life Working hard to find our way back home We’re just people
2. Different cultures different worlds Languages and barriers Leading our completely different lives And even though we disagree On just about everything We can leave our differences aside And be there for each other Whenever there’s a need Every strength and every weakness Can help us all to see
We’re just people Sent here from heaven We’re just people living, breathing souls With beating hearts and crying eyes Yearning for a better life Working hard to find our way back home We’re His people Made in His image We’re His people Children of God
We’re His people Sent here from heaven Amazing people living, breathing souls With beating hearts and crying eyes Yearning for a better life Working hard to find our way back home
We’re His people Sent here from heaven Amazing people living, breathing souls With beating hearts and crying eyes Yearning for a better life Working hard to find our way back home We’re just people But we’re so much more than people We’re His people We are so much more than people
