The Different
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You've never been to the moon
But don't you want to go
Under the sea in the volcano
You've never looked into my eyes
But don't you want to know
What the dark and the wild
And the different know
Come dance with me now
We'll dance without a care
I'm as free as a fire
And change is in the air
There are some things in my life
I'll never understand
But they become the force
That makes me who I am
Don't you worry about the kids
The kids are all right
Mama's rollin' in the back yard
Filled with love and light
'Cause you live and you learn
And you learn to hold on
And time will make it heal
And time will make it gone
Come with me now
Come with me now
It's time to try
It's time to fly
