USA For Africa — We Are the World

[Verse 1: Lionel Richie & Paul Simon] There comes a time when we heed a certain call When the world must come together as one There are people dying Oh when it's time to lend a hand to life The greatest gift of all [Verse 2] We can't go on pretending day by day That someone, somewhere will soon make a change We are all a part of God's great big family And the truth, you know Love is all we need [Chorus: Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Both] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me [Verse 3] Send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares And their lives will be stronger and free As God has shown us by turning stone to bread So we all must lend a helping hand [Chorus] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me [Bridge: Michael Jackson, Huey Lewis, Cyndi Lauper, Kim Carnes] When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all But if you just believe, there's no way we can fall Well, well, well Let us realize, oh, that a change can only come When we stand together as one [Chorus: Choir] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me [Chorus: Choir, Billy Joel] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me [Chorus: Choir, Billy Joel, & Ray Charles] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me Alright let me hear you [Chorus: Choir, Ray Charles] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving (Let's starts giving) There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a brighter day Just you and me Come on y'all let me hear you [Chorus: Stevie Wonder & Bruce Springsteen] We are the world, we are the children (We are the world, we are the children) We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me, yeah, yeah [Chorus: Stevie Wonder & Bruce Springsteen] We are the world, we are the children (We are the world, we are the children) We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me [Chorus: Choir] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me [Chorus: Choir] We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me Thank you We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me
