If Everyone Cared

Presten mucha atención a este video. To Cubans everywhere, with hope.

"Never doubt that a small group of people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
Margaret Mead.


If Everyone Cared

From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive

[Chorus:]
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died

And I'm singing

Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
(I'm alive)

[Chorus x2]

And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died...

[Chorus]

We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died

That's right Ernest, if everyone, or at least many ones, cared! But too many don't. However, we do, and we should keep on doing whatever we can. Thanks a lot.

Lastima que Nelson Mandela, en vez de pronunciarse por el pueblo cubano, haya escogido al tirano de la Isla.

Es cierto,pero la idea del video me parecio mas importante que las diferencias politicas que pudiera tener con Mandela.

Yoana, not enough people in the world care about Cubans and our fate i. It is the sad truth. Thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment.
