==Lyrics== | |||
===Movie version=== | |||
<ab>''Life can be a challenge | |||
Life can seem impossible | |||
It's never easy when so much | |||
Is on the line | |||
But you can make a difference | |||
With courage, you can set things right | |||
The gift to dream and make dreams real | |||
Is yours and mine | |||
The power of one | |||
Begins with believing | |||
It starts in the heart, | |||
Then flows through the soul | |||
And changes the world | |||
Imagine how life will be | |||
When we stand in unity | |||
Each of us holds the key | |||
To the power of one | |||
Then one by one | |||
We can make the world | |||
A much better place | |||
The power of one | |||
Begins with believing | |||
It starts in the heart, | |||
Then flows through the soul | |||
And changes the world | |||
Imagine how life will be | |||
When we stand in unity | |||
Each of us holds the key | |||
It's inside of you and me | |||
Each of us holds the key | |||
To the power of one''</ab> | |||
