The Melody Makers Lounge - Lyrics Challenge - Lyrics by @hoppelelefant - Music, Female Vocal Clone & Interpretation by @mercyinthequiet [Verse 1] A single voice no line can divide Cross the water on a wooden chord Carry a melody shore to shore (shore to shore) Singing peace where words fall short [Chorus 1 ] Oh, let the rhythm travel round the globe Every note another thread of hope (thread of hope) One heartbeat in a different tongue The greatest song that's ever sung (ever sung) Old strings ringing in the desert dust Hands keep time where the roads turn rough Then a child smiles as the drums begin And suddenly the whole world joins in (joins in) [Chorus 2] Oh, let the rhythm travel round the globe Every note another thread of hope One heartbeat in a different tongue The greatest song that's ever sung [Bridge] Hear the rhythm play Passing hand to hand Brighter every day No border understands From Kingston town to the delta stream From mountain roads to city streets We carry the weight of a common dream (common dream) And find the places where our voices meet Oh, let the rhythm travel round the globe Every note another thread of hope One heartbeat in a different tongue The greatest song that's ever sung (ever sung) Let it rise where the old bells rung Let it live in the old and young If there's one song belonging to everyone The greatest song that's ever sung One voice One rhythm A thousand tongues And still the song goes on (goes on)
