lyrics

There’s power in the wind
Power in the sun
Power in the tides
and in the rivers as they run
Power in the people
and the songs they sing
With hearts and minds together
We can do most anything

The moon pulls at the tide
A stream moves in its bed
Toss a pebble into a pool
And watch the ripples spread
A spot forms on the sun
A butterfly flaps its wings
A distant star goes nova
And somewhere someone sings

Hello Paris
City of Love and Light
As nations gathered in your name
To share a planet’s plight
Although some may forsake you
Billions more unite
In the City of Love and Light

We share the seas and skies
We stand on common ground
We yearn and strive together
At the joys that can be found
The seas rise oh so slowly
Yet it won’t be long before
Atlantic waves are lapping
At Mar-a-Lago’s door

Hello Paris
City of Love and Light
As nations gathered in your name
To share a planet’s future
Although some may forsake you
Billions more unite
In the City of Love and Light
