One Anthem for the World Songtext
von Chubb+Bits

A hundred languages and one field
A hundred flags and one ball
Some nights the world forgets its borders
And remembers we′re not small

And the drum beats in every language
And the chant rises everywhere
And for ninety minutes something happens
That reminds us we all care

One anthem for the world
One song that crosses every line
One moment where we're all the same side
One rhythm and one time
One anthem for the world
The only kind that doesn′t need translation
Just a melody that every heart can find
One anthem for the world


Kids are watching from ten thousand towns
Learning names they've never heard
Wearing colours like a second skin
Already knowing every word

And the drum beats in every language
And the chant rises everywhere
And for ninety minutes something happens
That reminds us we all care

One anthem for the world
One song that crosses every line
One moment where we're all the same side
One rhythm and one time
One anthem for the world
The only kind that doesn′t need translation
Just a melody that every heart can find
One anthem for the world

You don′t need the words
You just need to feel it
You don't need a passport
To belong to this

One anthem for the world
And tonight it′s ours
