Same Sun, Same Sky lyrics

Let's dance.

Let's dance.

Let's dance.

[Spoken news clips:]

(We in-, we, we interrupt this program 

to bring you a special news bulletin...)

(This is an emergency).

(....has attacked Pearl Harbor, Hawaii by air...)

(This is an emergency).

(...in Iran by Iraqi security forces...)

(This is an emergency).  

(War, war, serious, war, war...)

(Serious, war...)

(Here we, here we, here we, here we go).

We all dance under the same sun, too high, whoa.

Why should it matter where we come from?

(Hey, hey, yeah, whoa)

We all dance under the same sky, oh, alright,

so put up your hands and make the peace sign.

(Peace, peace sign)

(Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, da-dance)

We're running and running with no place to go.

Just look around, fear is all we ever know.

Colors and boundaries determine your fate.

Ideas, we need to build and create

a land with a positive flow,

so dance and let the world know.

We don't have much time,

start crossing the line,

we need to find some peace of mind.

Let's dance.

We all dance under the same sun, too high, whoa.

Why should it matter where we come from?

(It shouldn't matter, it shouldn't matter.)

Let's dance.

We all dance under the same sky.

Same sun, same sky.

Put up your hands and make the peace sign.

Here we go, one, two, three, peace!

Walls are tumbling down,

freedom is the sound

that's ringing through the streets, yeah.

We gotta stand together.

(Hand in hand, we'll share the land).

Yes, it belongs to all of us

so let it go and give it time,

it's yours and mine.

(It belongs to all of us).

I see a change, no time to blame,

let's stop the pain.

(Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Let's dance.

We all dance under the same sun, too high, whoa.

Why should it matter where we come from?

(Tell me why, tell me why).

Let's dance.

We all dance under the same sky.

Same sun, same sky.

Put up your hands and make the peace sign.

Now here we go, one, two, three, peace!

(Let's dance).

Yes, yes

Yes, yes

[Spoken:]

Albert Einstein had said against an atomic explosion, 

there is  no real, there is no real [?].

Just take a minute and think of us.

I know you can get with the plan,

just take a stand.

We have the tool, all we need is trust.

No time to grieve, don't be deceived,

you must believe

we'll make a better world.

Don't live in the dark,

don't tear us apart,

don't make no mistake,

don't live off of hate.

Don't live in the dark, (don't live)

don't hate,

don't, don't, don't make that mistake, yeah.

People everywhere, let it fill the air.

The time for change has come.

We gotta stand together.

(Now we're ready to do it. Come on, girl).

Do it.

We all dance...

We all dance under the same sun, too high, whoa.

Why should it matter where we come from?

(It shouldn't matter, it shouldn't matter.)

We all dance under the same sky, oh, yeah.

Put up your hands and make the peace sign.

(That's right, put up your hands 

and follow the Moran clan 

while we start to chant).

Here we go.

It's the same sun, it's the same sky.

Throw your hands high,

make a peace sign, yeah.

(Yeah)

Peace sign

(Alright, keep it going. Are you ready?) 

Make a peace sign.  

(Here we go, one, two, three, peace).

(Let's dance).

That's right, peace.

We spend too much time thinkin' about 

what we're gonna do bad to one another

instead of thinkin' about 

what we can do good with one another.

So while you're dancin' on the floor with me, 

I want you all to think about it, alright?

Check it out.

It's the same sun.

(Give a little love, give a little love).

It's the same sky.  

(Give a little love, give a little love).  

Throw your hands high.

(Give a little love, give a little love).    

Make a peace sign, yeah.

(Give a little love, give a little love, yeah).  

Peace sign

Make a peace sign.

Peace.

[Spoken:]

We pray thee that the end of the war may come soon.
