Destiny's Child - Stand Up For Love

There are times I find it hard to sleep at night 
We are living through such troubled times 
And every child that reaches out for someone to hold 
For one moment they become my own 

And how can I pretend that I don’t know what’s going on? 
When every second of every minute another soul is gone 

And I believe that in my life I will see 
An end to hopelessness 
Of giving up 
Of suffering 

Then we all stand together this one time 
Then no one will get left behind 
And stand up for life 
Stand up and hear me sing 
Stand up for love 

I'm inspired and hopeful each and everyday 
That's how I know that things are gonna change 

So how can I pretend that I don’t know what’s going on? 
When every second of every minute 
Another soul is gone 

And I believe that in my life I will see 
An end to hopelessness 
Of giving up 
Of suffering 

If we all stand together this one time 
Then no one will get left behind 
Stand up for life 
Stand up for love 

And it all starts right here 
And it starts right now 
One person stand up 
And the rest will follow 
For all the forgotten 
For all the unloved 
I'm gonna sing this song

And I believe that in my life I will see 
An end to hopelessness 
Of giving up 
Of suffering 

If we all stand together this one time 
Then no one will get left behind 
Stand up for life 
Stand up and sing 
Stand up for love 
For love 
For love

"love walks one direction with the time. both at the night or at the morning. both real or just pretending strong to know the real. believe that love is the end hopelessness, of giving up, of suffering. but... what must you know is things are gonna change. sing the song! stand up for life, stand up and sing, stand up for love."
