Продюсер проекта Куинси [ссылка] comes a time when we hear a certain callWhen the world must come together as oneThere are people dyingand it's time to lend a hand to lifeThere greatest gift of allWe can't go on pretending day by dayThat someone, somewhere will soon make a changeWe are all a part of God's great big familyAnd the truth, you know,Love is all we need[Chorus:]We are the world, we are the childrenWe are the ones who make a brighter daySo let's start givingThere's a choice [ссылка] making[ссылка] saving our own livesit's true we'll make a better dayJust you and meSend them your heart so they'll know that someone caresAnd their lives will be stronger and freeAs God has shown us by turning stones to breadSo we all must lend a helping hand[Chorus]When [ссылка] down and out, there seems no hope at allBut if you just believe there's no way we can fallLet us realize that a change can only comeWhen we stand together as one[Chorus]
