Everybody sees
The world through their own lens
Everybody has
Their own challenges and friends

Lend me your glasses
I’ll give mine to you
Let’s share our glasses
Yellow, green and blue

Talk to me
About what you see
Talk to me
Let’s share our history

We’ll try to see
All the points of view
Before we choose
What we want to do

Everybody sees
The world through their own lens
Everybody has
Their own challenges and friends

Lend me your glasses
I’ll give mine to you
Let’s share our glasses
Yellow, green and blue

History has happened
And we can’t go back
But we can learn
From the past

Who tells the story?
Who makes the choice?
Everyone
Should have a voice

Lend me your glasses
Help me learn what you see
Lend me your glasses
Let’s see what the world can be

Lend me your glasses
Help me learn what you see
Lend me your glasses
Let’s see what the world can be

Let’s share our glasses
We’ll clean the lens
Let’s share our glasses
So we can be friends

Everybody sees
The world in their own way
So many ways to be
Let’s share our glasses right away

Lend me your glasses
Help me learn what you see
Lend me your glasses
Let’s see what the world can be

Lend me your glasses
Help me learn what you see
Lend me your glasses
Let’s see what the world can be
