Lyrics & Translation

[English]

It's there in the eyes of the children

In the faces smiling in the windows

You can come on out, come on open the doors

Brush away the tears of freedom

Now we're here, there's no turning back

We have each other

We have one voice (we have one voice)

Hand in hand we will lay the tracks

Because the train is coming to carry you home

Come dance with me

Come on and dance into the light

Oh-oh!

Everybody dance into the light

...

There'll be no more hiding in the shadows of fear

There'll be no more chains to hold you

The future is yours - you hold the key

And there are no walls with freedom

Now we're here, we won't go back

We are one world

We have one voice (we have one voice)

Side by side we are not afraid

Because the train is coming to carry you home

Come dance with me

Come on and dance into the light

Oh oh

Everybody dance into the light

...

Do you see the sun? It's a brand new day

All the world's in your hands, now use it!

What's past is past, don't turn around

Brush away the cobwebs of freedom

Now we're here, there's no turning back

You have each other

You have one voice (you have one voice)

Hand in hand you can lay the tracks

Because the train is coming to carry you home

Come dance with me

Come on and dance into the light

Oh oh

Everybody dance into the light

Oh oh

Everybody dance into the light

Oh oh

Dance into the light

Oh oh

Come on and dance into the light

Everybody oh oh

Come on and dance into the light

Everybody now oh oh

Dance into the light

Dance oh oh

Come on and dance into the light

Everybody now oh oh

Come on and dance into the light

Into the light oh oh

Everybody dance into the light

Everybody oh oh

Everybody dance into the light

To the light, to the light oh oh

...
