just a friendly face

in a crowd of strangers

with hands held close 

we will fear no danger

seeing stars for the next eight years

wishes made

let go your fear



yes we can X4



JFK for the brand new wait

in our lifetime we enter a hopeful state

be kind to your neighbor if no one is watching

sing of goodness when no one is stopping



yes we can X4

yes we can

overcome

yes we can

be as one

yes we can

live together

yes we can



tell me that I'm preaching

I'm just speaking my mind

tell me that I'm reaching

you've gotta reach to find



love the world

and you begin

to see what its all about

can we change that way we live

and let the truth sing out



yes we can



yes we can X4

yes we can 

overcome

yes we can

be as one

yes we can

live together

yes we can



yes we can

overcome

yes we can

be as one

yes we can

live together 

yes we can



(singing over and over)

yes we can
