Song lyrics

Maybe you and I can't do great things

We may not change the world in one day

But we still can change some things today

In our small way


Empty words are not enough

Where there's hurt, we'll be a crutch

When there's thirst, we'll fill each other's cup

Because we care, we love

Enough to share (Enough to share)


Maybe you and I can't do great things (Do great things)

We may not change the world in one day

But we still can change some things today (Today)

In our small way


In despair, we'll be the hope (Be the hope)

And the prayer that frees the soul (Frees the soul)

We'll be there to share each lonely road (Lonely road)

Because we love, I know (I know)

We care enough, yeah (We care enough)


Maybe you and I can't do great things (Do great things)

We may not change the world in one day

But we still can change some things today (Today)

In our small way


Just a little time is all it takes (Just a little time is all it takes)

What a difference just a smile can make, you'll see (We've got)

Love is all we need (We've got love, yeah)


Maybe you and I can't do great things

We may not change the world in one day

(But we still) But we still can change some things today

In our small way


(La-la-la la-la-la-la-la) Ooh

(La-la-la-la la-la-la la-la) Ooh

(La-la)


(La-la la-la la-la-la-la-la)

(La-la-la-la la-la-la la-la)
