What Really Matters

My heart has been calling

for something new.

Do you think

it would make a difference

if it's me or you

who makes this move?

 

This here is all that matters

Let it be that simple for once

Let’s spread love all around

Let’s take on the world unafraid

Nothing can stop us now

 

Just listen,

you'll hear me sing.

 

Don't worry,

leave your cares behind.

It will come to you

as sweetly as peace

as when the day is done.
