Somewhere boys and girls in a far off land Are waking up just as we say goodnight They may not look like you or do the things you do But within we're very much alike The sadness in a tear, the comfort of a hug Are feelings every child can understand And laughter is a sound known the world around The meaning is the same in every land Chorus: 'Cause we're all spinning on the same ball Sailing through the same vast space We're all spinning on the same ball
Living in the very same place Hunger knows no language, thirst no boundary They feel the same wherever people live And a simple act of care, can happen anywhere We see the need and take the time to give Repeat Chorus 'Tho we learn to talk to God in different ways The need to find life's meaning is the same God looks with equal grace on every color face And answers prayers to many different names Repeat Chorus Yes, we're living in the very same place
