On:

There's an old ancient saying in the wind
"One must only take the first step to begin"
You're on your way, then you've done the hardest part
Now make your journey with a generous heart.

Chorus
   Step by step, side by side
   Hand in hand this old world's a better ride
   Step by step, side by side
   Take a little step with your neighbor side by side.

When we've stumbled and broken our stride
Wearin' out on our boots our foolish pride
Gonna put on our brand-new running shoes
And run a race which no one can really lose.

(bridge)
If you see me fallin' down, and you stop to lend a hand
What goes around comes round, and round and round

If you run to a neighbor for help
That don't mean you can't do it for yourself
It just means that your neighbor will know
When he needs help he'll know where to go.

If we understood that the heart's the one true power
And that nothin' that we see is really ours
From a satellite we all look like one
I think our world's turn may finally have come.
