lyrics

Hey, big world
Where are you heading, today?
Oh, dear world
Do we feel closer, from far away?

Hey, my country
How are we doing, today?
Oh, dear country
Did we get better, in a meaningful way?

I’ll be there for you
If and when

Hey, my neighbour
How are you feeling, today?
Oh, old neighbour
Do you have someone to talk to, at end of the day?

Hey, my darling
How did it go? Your day
Oh, sweetheart
Come give me a hug. All is ok

Cause I am here for you
Everyday

Hey, my soul
Could you take it all in, today?
Oh, wise soul
Am I on the right path, anyway?
