As every day goes by
 How can we close our eyes
 Until we open up our hearts

 We can learn to share
 And show how much we care
 Right from the moment that we start

 Seems like overnight
 We see the world in a different light
 Somehow our innocence is lost

 How can we look away
 ’cause every single day
 We’ve got to help at any cost

 We can bridge the distance
 Only we can make the difference
 Don’t you know that tears are not enough

 If we can pull together
 We could change the world forever
 Heaven knows that tears are not enough

 It’s up to me and you
 To make the [bad word] [bad word]  It’s time to take our message everywhere

 C’est l’amour qui nous rassemble
 D’ici ? l’autre bout du monde
 Let’s show them Canada still cares
 You know that we’ll be there

 If we should try together you and i
 Maybe we could understand the reasons why
 If we take a stand every woman, child and man
 We can make it work for god’s sake lend a hand
