🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • We're one but we're not the same
  • We get to carry each other, carry each other
  • One!

Sing it again — final chorus

  • We're one but we're not the same
  • Well we hurt each other then we do it again
  • You say love is a temple, love a higher law
  • Love is a temple, love the higher law
eachotherwe're
