We can feel a change is coming
Like a kiss upon the tide
Breathing life into every heart
A hope for kinder times
Cause we have walked this road together
Though at times we felt alone
In the struggle to lift us up
We find a strength I've yet to find
You carry your courage, carry the history
Of all who have gone before you
Wherever you come from
You're born of the one dream that finds you, standing here
And you know that you can make it
(you can make it)
You've got the whole world in your hands
(whole world in your hands)
And you've spent a lifetime working for this moment
(working for this moment)
And you are shining
You're all that you wanted to be
When you're airborne and free
At peace with gravity
High above everyone can see
The spirit of human ecology
How your flame keeps burning
When you leave all doubt behind
It's a giant leap for mankind
At peace we all shine
You carry your courage, carry the history
Of all you have gone before you
Wherever you come from
You're born of the one dream that finds you, standing here
And you know that you can make it
(you can make it)
You've got the whole world in your hands
(whole world in your hands)
Cause you've spent your lifetime working for this moment
(you are shining)
And you are shining
(you are shining)
You are all that you wanted to be
(you are shining)
And you are shining
You're all that you wanted to be
