We Stand Together

Diana Ross · Workin' Overtime [1989]

Stand up, stand tall, and be counted

Divided we fall, together we stand, together

Our love has all never doubt it

Alone we fall, together we stand, together



When we're playin' the game of life

What we pay is a heavy price

If you choose the wrong path

You will lose, that's so right

Be prepared, you might have to make some sacrifice

I can feel we can make it

I believe, when there's no longer seperation, we'll succeed

Here's a chance, better take it

Time won't wait for us, everyone come on



Stand up, stand tall, and be counted

Divided we fall, together we stand, together

Our love has all never doubt it

Alone we fall, together we stand, together



I'm afraid we will never learn

that's why I'm sayin' I'm so concerned

Turn around and look, this court is adjourned

Before we get beyond the point of no return

Leave us not be forsaken

Let me speak my peace

The pen is mightier than the sword, or so it seems

Here's a chance, better take it

Time won't wait for us, everyone come on



Stand up, stand tall, and be counted

Divided we fall, together we stand, together

Our love has all never doubt it

Alone we fall, together we stand, together



On the stage of a theatre

A production of all the feelings

That we're feeling all surrounding us

In the words of a playwright

One is not enough

To experience the act called love

Called trust-called love-called trust
