Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Lauer, Stepanek
[00:01.16] It matters that the world knows
[00:09.08] We must celebrate the gift of life
[00:11.58] Every day in some way
[00:13.64] We must always remember to play after every storm
[00:19.29]
[00:22.47] All children are truly blessed
[00:24.65] With the innocent gifts
[00:25.52] of gentleness, trust, and compassion
[00:29.44] To guide the wisdom of the grown-ups
[00:32.07]
[00:32.94] We all have a song in our heart
[00:36.06]
[00:37.24] that inspires us in good times and hard times
[00:41.30] If we take the time to listen
[00:44.87]
[00:46.06] It matters, it matters,
[00:52.04]
[00:54.54] Oh, it matters that the world knows
[01:00.47]
[01:03.90] Our senses help discover the hidden and non-hidden
[01:08.24] Enchantment in life, if we use them
[01:11.67]
[01:16.79] We must carefully choose our words and wants
[01:19.72] Or we could forever hurt others
[01:23.96] with these dangerous weapons
[01:26.21]
[01:27.83] Strength and value of all things created
[01:31.95] Must be measured by character and commitment
[01:36.69] Rather than by might and by wealth
[01:40.75] It matters, it matters,
[01:49.00] Oh, it matters that the world knows
[01:56.49]
[01:58.74] We must heed the lessons of everyday life
[02:04.54] Through the celebration of children
[02:08.04] and heartsongs, senses and words
[02:11.41] Or we could lose in our journey to the future
[02:16.33]
[02:19.83] It matters
[02:23.70]
[02:38.76] A person by my name and being existed
[02:43.50] With a strong spirit and an eternal mindset
[02:47.98] To become a peacemaker for all
[02:50.73] By sharing the things that really matter
