I believe the children are our future

Teach them well and let them lead the way

Show them all the beauty they posses inside

Give them a sense of pride to make it easier

Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

Everybody searching for a hero

People need someone to look up to

I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs

A lonely place to be, so I learned to depend on me

I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadow

If I failed, if I succeed, at least I lived as I believed.

No matter what they take from me they can't take away mydignity

Because the greatest Love of all is happening to me

I found the greatest love of all inside of me

The greatest love of all

Is easy to achieve learning to love yourself

it is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future

Teach them well and let them lead the way

Show them all the beauty they posses inside

Give them a sense of pride

To make it easier

Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

I decided long ago

Never to walk in anyone's shadow

If I fail, if I succeed

At least I live as I believed

No matter what they take from me

The can't take away my dignity

Because the greatest love of all

Is happening to me

I found the greatest love of all inside of me

The greatest love of all

Is easy to achieve

Learning to love yourself,

It is the greatest love of all

And if by chance that special place

That you've been dreaming of

Leads you to a lonely place

Find your strength in love
