They can't take that away
For all that we see, our humanity is wasting away, sinking beneath us
And all that we do gets lost on you, our raging screams fall onto deaf ears
We cry out
It's the little things in life that we do each and every day
They all make a big difference and they can't take that away
Smile at someone, hold a door open, think of people and pray
They can't take that away
This world is so cold, full of hatred, people reap what they sow
And when judgements passed; they all deny
Empty hearts, fuelled by hate led by others who just dictate
Blinded by their own vision, they spread their misery
Acid rains down and washes over us. It doesn't cleanse our skin, it burns away
For the same effort as a frown, we can smile, pick people up and not put them down
We have the power to unite the world
But it's the little things in life that we do each and every day
They all make a big difference and they can't take that away
Smile at someone, hold a door open, think of people and pray
They can't take that away
This world is so warm, full of virtue, people reap what they sow
And when judgements passed; they all reclaim
Full hearts, fuelled by love give to others who they class above
Guided by their own vision, they spread their joy to us
Kindness rains down and washes over us. It cleanses our sin and gives us hope
For the same effort as a frown, we can smile, pick people up and not put them down
We have the power to unite the world
Unite the world
I can see the good in us
All these little things build up to matter
In a time of need, we will remember
All these little things build up to matter
In a time of need, we will unite the world
