[Spoken Intro: Barack Obama]
What we know - what we have seen. Is that America can change. That is the true genius of this nation. What we have already achieved gives us hope. The audacity to hope. For what we can and must achieve tomorrow
[Chorus: Lionel Richie]
There is a place for us, for all the world to see
There is a place out there, I know, somewhere for all eternity
[Verse 1: Lionel Richie]
Here we stand, all God's children together
Tryna see where wе belong
With hills and valleys to conquer
It's timе we weathered the storm
Everybody's looking for something
Something they can hold on to
We're lost in a sea of confusion
It's hard to know what to do
[Chorus: Lionel Richie]
There is a place for us, for all the world to see
There is a place out there, I know, for all eternity
[Verse 2: Lionel Richie]
Where do we go? Tell me, sisters and brothers
How much wrong must we do to be right?
It's time that we look in the mirror
It's time that we see the same light
I know, I know everybody's searching
Why can't we just all get along?
It's time that we all come together
It's time that we sing the same song
[Chorus: Lionel Richie]
There is a place for us, for all the world to see
There is a place out there, I know, for all eternity
[Bridge: Lionel Richie]
Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, the sun will shine
Oh, I know, I know for all mankind, oh, for all mankind
Where we can find love, oh love, oh love
[Chorus in Background: Lionel Richie & Choir]
There is a place for us, for all the world to see
There is a place out there, I know, for all eternity
[Spoken Interlude: Barack Obama]
I chose to run for president to continue the long march of those who came before us. A march for a more just, more equal, more free, more caring and more prosperous America
[Chorus: Lionel Richie & Choir]
(Oh, there's a place) There is a place for us, for all the world to see
(I know)
There is a place out there, I know, for all eternity
There is a place for us, for all the world to see
(I know) There is a place I know, for all eternity (Yeah, oh yeah)
Eternity, eternity (Yeah)
Eternity
[Outro: Lionel Richie]
For all eternity
