    You are saying that and I feel it's true
    We have each other
    And time will go as time must go
    Time won't do what we won't know

    There is a chance
    That all our dreams will come to pass

    You are me
    And I am you
    同一个世界
    同一个梦想

    My name is hope

    There is a chance
    That all our dreams will come to pass

    When there is hope
    When there is love
    And then we can open our arms
    And fly
