We Are The World – Demo Version – Lyrics

There is a time,
When we should hear a certain call,
`cause the world, it seems it`s written in these lines,
`cause there`s a chance for takin`,
in leading our own lives,
it seems we need nothing at all,
I used to feel,
That I should give away my heart,
And it shows that we are needed in there,
Then I read the headlines,
And it said that got in there,
And it showed that we are – – – in there,

We are the world,
We are the children,
We are the one to make a brighter day,
So let`s start givin`,
There`s a chance we`re takin`,
We`re takin all our lives,
It`s true we`re make it a brighter day just you and me.

Uuuuuh yeah!

Given your heart
And you will see that someone cares
`Cause you know that they can`t feed them all,
Then I read the papers
And it said that you and I
And it shows the – – – when we work hard,

We are the world,
We are the children,
We are the one to make a brighter day,
So let`s start givin`,
There`s a chance we`re takin`,
We`re takin all our lifes,
It`s true we`re make it a brighter day just you and me.

Now there`s a time when we must love at all,
Uuuuuuuh
And it seem the life, – – – make love at all,
But – – – – –
And I love you more and more,
It seem you and I will make a new day,
