What one man can do. (Deutschendorf)
I suppose that there are those who’ll say he had it easy
Had it made in fact before he’d even begun
But they don’t know the things I know
I was always with him
It may sound strange, we were more than friends
It’s hard to tell the truth when no one wants to listen
When no one really cares what’s going on
And it’s hard to stand alone
When you need someone beside you
Your spirit, your faith must be strong
What one man can do is dream
What one man can do is love
What one man can do is change the world and make it young again
Here you see what one man can do
Had it made in fact before he’d even begun
But they don’t know the things I know
I was always with him
It may sound strange, we were more than friends
It’s hard to tell the truth when no one wants to listen
When no one really cares what’s going on
And it’s hard to stand alone
When you need someone beside you
Your spirit, your faith must be strong
What one man can do is dream
What one man can do is love
What one man can do is change the world and make it young again
Here you see what one man can do
As shaded as his eyes might be, that’s how bright his mindis
That’s how strong his love for you and me
A friend to all the universe
Grandfather of the future
Everything I would like to be
What one man can do is dream
What one man can do is love
What one man can do is change the world and make it new again
Here you see what one man can do
That’s how strong his love for you and me
A friend to all the universe
Grandfather of the future
Everything I would like to be
What one man can do is dream
What one man can do is love
What one man can do is change the world and make it new again
Here you see what one man can do
