Far lyrics
If we bring our hearts together then we can make the world much better
We will learn, together we’ll go far
Colours of the pretty rainbow, red, gold, green and even indigo
We will learn, together we’ll go far
Courage and hope, we won’t let go
Qualities we’ll need forever and let love grow
If we bring our hearts together then we can make the world much better
We will learn, together we’ll go far
Colours of the pretty rainbow, red, gold, green and even indigo
We will learn, together we’ll go far
Learning the purpose of life, we all need love to survive, if you choose to play your part we’ll UNITE!
Courage and hope, we won’t let go
Qualities we’ll need forever and let love grow
Colours of the pretty rainbow, red, gold, green and even indigo
We will learn, together we’ll go far
