All for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
There's no need to live on an island
Cause everyone here respects your opinion
It all adds up to
It's your strength we need
So get behind and push
If you don't want to lead
Cause it's all for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
I don't know your future plans
But divided I'm sure
You will not stand
I said all that to say
There's an easier way
If it's love that we share
Then there's no debt to pay
Cause we are all down here under the sky
Won't you try
Won't you try
We're all down here
You're not alone
You've been pushing and pulling and shoving
Since the day you were born
So let's try
All for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
And a smile will appear on your face
Cause suddenly, suddenly the world is a beautiful place
Cause it's all for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
All for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
All for one and one for all
Let's try, let's try
You live, you give, you have a ball
All for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
If it's love that we share
Love that we share
It's one for all
All for one and one for all
Get down inside
Together
You live, you give, you have a ball
There's no need to live on an island
Cause everyone here respects your opinion
It all adds up to
It's your strength we need
So get behind and push
If you don't want to lead
Cause it's all for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
I don't know your future plans
But divided I'm sure
You will not stand
I said all that to say
There's an easier way
If it's love that we share
Then there's no debt to pay
Cause we are all down here under the sky
Won't you try
Won't you try
We're all down here
You're not alone
You've been pushing and pulling and shoving
Since the day you were born
So let's try
All for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
And a smile will appear on your face
Cause suddenly, suddenly the world is a beautiful place
Cause it's all for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
All for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
All for one and one for all
Let's try, let's try
You live, you give, you have a ball
All for one and one for all
You live, you give, you have a ball
If it's love that we share
Love that we share
It's one for all
All for one and one for all
Get down inside
Together
