I believe the children are our future 
 Teach them well and let them lead the way 
 Show them all the beauty they possess inside 
 Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
 Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be 
 Everybody searching for a hero 
 People need someone to look up to 
 I never found anyone to fulfill my needs 
 A lonely place to be 
 So I learned to depend on me 

[Chorus:]
 I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows 
 If I fail, if I succeed 
 At least I live as I believe 
 No matter what they take from me 
 They can't take away my dignity 
 Because the greatest love of all 
 Is happening to me 
 I found the greatest love of all 
 Inside of me 
 The greatest love of all 
 Is easy to achieve 
 Learning to love yourself 
 It is the greatest love of all 

 I believe the children are our future
 Teach them well and let them lead the way 
 Show them all the beauty they possess inside 
 Give them a sense of pride to make it easier 
 Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be 

[Chorus]

 And if by chance, that special place 
 That you've been dreaming of 
 Leads you to a lonely place 
 Find your strength in love
