Sometimes you try so hard to be things that you're not
You're hiding behind a wall and you can't see
Just one push and the wall will come tumbling down
And then you're left naked standing all alone

Always coming to an end before we can start
Sometimes you feel that you have no control
We'll run for cover, under this roof we will be warm
Right by your side together we'll wait out of the storm
Don't you know a change will come
Just stand firm for all you believe
Don't you know that we will be where we want to be
Just come with me you're not alone

A start shining brightly, a diamond a ruby
A treasure to find, brings a smile to my face
Shake off all your troubles, they roll right off your back
Just like an old stray dog when he's caught in the rain
And I know that some day we'll find what we're looking for
A new you, a new me, a new start
I won't stop moving forward, fell the strength that truth brings
The love we spread shines like a jewel within our hearts

Sometimes you try so hard to be things that you're not
You're hiding behind a wall and you can't see
Just one push and the wall will come tumbling down
And then you're left naked standing all alone

Everyone shares the same humanity
Whether a president or a king
Don't you know that the one thing that matters
Is living a life true to yourself, it's your choice
Then suddenly a friend comes out of nowhere,
Brings us an umbrella and lends a hand
Let's hope that we soon have the same opportunity
When we help our fellow man

A start shining brightly, a diamond a ruby
A treasure to find, brings a smile to my face
Shake off all your troubles, they roil right off your back
Just like an old stray dog when he's caught in the rain
Even when you are lost deep in the storm
I will search, I will find where you are
'cause I know the love we share like a light in the dark
Shines so bright, like a jewel within our hearts

Now that I can see it's so clear to me
Appreciate the beauty that you bring
With you here by my side, feel the warmth of your smile
Glows like a rainbow in the sun
A start shining brightly, a diamond a ruby
A treasure to find, brings a smile to my face
Shake off all your troubles, they roil right off your back
Just like an old stray dog when he's caught in the rain
And I know that some day we'll find what we're looking for
A new you, a new me, a new start
I won't stop moving forward, feel the strength that truth brings
The love we spread shines like a jewel within our hearts
