Select language to translate this lyric
Something's got us so distracted
And keeps our mind off what is real
But if we could overcome the borders of our pride
Made to conquer, to confuse, and to divide
That's what's keeping us from standing side by side
A million teardrops make an ocean
And only love can stand the tide
The gift of hope and true devotion
Will forever be my guide
Chances are that we will make it
But there'll be stones along the way
There's no shame in giving love or to take it
There is only shame when you see the pain and turn away
Can we live like this yet another day
A million teardrops make an ocean
And only love can stand the tide
The gift of hope and true devotion
Will forever be my guide
And we all are seeds
In this garden we call life
And we all deserve the chance to grow
Though the tempest has
Us weeping in our hearts
With those falling tears
We will water what we've sown
A million teardrops make an ocean
But only love can stand the tide
The gift of hope and true devotion
Will forever be my guide
