There's a sadness all around us There are words we're too afraid to say The things that I thought would last forever Are changing every day There's a hunger that can't be satisfied And the streets are filled with rage It's time to dig deep inside ourselves And face the life we've made It's gonna take the two of us I just can't do it all on my own I see the day gettin' brighter Hold me a little bit tighter Out of the darkness and hand in hand Baby together we will make our stand Reach out and touch me we can win somehow I know there's nothin' that can stop us now Oh baby, come with me out of the darkness I've lived my life trapped with trouble Now it's time to make a new start I thought the only justice in this world Came from an angry heart Now I know there's got to be love to protect us But we can't wait for it to come I know there's more to life than black and white The sooner we learn, the sooner we've won It's gonna take the two of us I just can't make it all on my own If you are a fighter Hold me a little bit tighter
