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 It seems like overnight we see a 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 hold together We could change the world forever Heaven knows that tears are not enough It's up to me and you To make the dream come true It's time to take our message everywhere See'est l'amour qui nous ra**emble D'ici a l'autre bout du monde Let's show them Canada still cares Oh, you know that we'll be there We can bridge the distance Only we can make the difference Don't you know that Tears are not enough If we can hold together We could change the world forever Heaven knows that tears are not enough And 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 could make it work For God's sake, lend a hand
