lyrics

Another You

I am another you
A Pagan, a Christian, a Muslim, a Hindu, and Jew
Black, white, red, yellow or brown
We come in all colors, we share common ground
Give me your hand, the time has now come
Your laugh is a song, your heart is the drum
Your laugh is a song, your heart is the drum

I, oh I, am another you
What we’re all doing here, I haven’t a clue
The dawn may be dark, but there’s light in your eyes
Is it peace that you want? Only you can decide
What brings us together? What tears us apart?
Don’t turn your head, just open your heart
No, don’t run and hide, just open your heart

I am another you
A Rasta, a Buddhist, an Agnostic and a Ghost Dancer too
The words to this song won’t stop any wars
It’s happening now, it happened before
Brothers will fight, their mothers will cry
Let’s stop all this hate before one more dies
Let’s stop all this hate before one more dies

I am another you
A Christian, a Muslim, a Hindu and a Zen prankster too
Black, white, red, yellow or brown
Peace is the word and Om is the sound (Om)
Give me your hand, the time has now come
Your laugh is a song, your heart is the drum
Your laugh is a song, your heart is the drum
Your laugh is a song, your heart is the drum
Your laugh is a song, your heart is the drum
