[00:14.07] There are children raised in sorrow
[00:16.26] On a scorched and barren plain
[00:20.88] There are children raised beneath a golden sun
[00:26.13] There are children of the water
[00:31.44] Children of the sand
[00:34.32] And they cry out through the universe
[00:36.94] Their voices raised as one
[00:42.82] I want to live I want to grow
[00:45.58] I want to see I want to know
[00:49.14] I want to share what I can give
[00:52.27] I want to be I want to live
[01:01.16] Have you gazed out on the ocean
[01:04.78] Seen the breaching of a whale?
[01:07.78] Have you watched the dolphins frolic in the foam?
[01:13.78] Have you heard the song the humpback hears five hundred miles away
[01:21.40] Telling tales of ancient history of passages and home?
[01:29.60] I want to live I want to grow
[01:32.78] I want to see I want to know
[01:35.97] I want to share what I can give
[01:39.28] I want to be I want to live
[01:44.78] For the worker and the warrior the lover and the liar
[01:49.65] For the native and the wanderer in kind
[01:57.09] For the maker and the user and the mother and her son
[02:03.47] I am looking for my family and all of you are mine
[02:11.90] We are standing all together
[02:13.72] Face to face and arm in arm
[02:17.96] We are standing on the threshold of a dream
[02:24.09] No more hunger no more killing
[02:27.28] No more wasting life away
[02:29.10] It is simply an idea
[02:34.54] And I know its time has come
[02:38.91] I want to live I want to grow
[02:42.28] I want to see I want to know
[02:45.28] I want to share what I can give
[02:48.60] I want to be I want to live
[02:51.97] I want to live I want to grow
[02:54.97] I want to see I want to know
[02:57.97] I want to share what I can give
[03:01.47] I want to be I want to live
