Lyrics
We’re marching into the future
And we can’t run from the past
The lie about winners and losers
Lying on a battlefield fading fast
Many kinds of soldiers
No guns in their hands
All sisters and brothers making a stand
We will lead the way with love
Show what we change with love
Get what we’re after, a whole new chapter
With our eyes on what really matters
Start with love, start with love
It’s the dawn of a revolution
And the light is shining bright
Every day another revelation
And another step forward to make things right
The contract is broken
Now it’s up to us to build a new dream
Hey, wasn’t life supposed to be oceans of happy and free
We will teach our kids to love
And we will reach the bridge to love
We’re so much better when we stand together
We can thrive in whatever weather
Start with love, start with love
Time to greet the new day, break open your heart
Unleash your power and play your part
We will lead the way with love
Show what we change with love
Get what we’re after, a whole new chapter
With our eyes on what really matters
We will teach our kids to love
And we will reach the bridge to love
We’re so much better when we stand together
We can thrive in whatever weather
Start with love, start with love
We will teach our kids to love
And we will reach the bridge to love
We will teach our kids to love
And we will reach the bridge to love
