Everybody Has a Part [Hans Peterson]

from Namaste (1997)

emma lives alone in a small house
adam mows her lawn every week for free
now his eyes are wide open, he sees the new bike at emma's side, she says,
'this is for you 'cause you've been a friend to me'

everybody has a part
all of us are important
to find out who they are and how they fit with one another
hidden in their heart
everybody has a part


nelson farms some land in Africa
but the cocoa price has fallen oh so low
now when the times are tough he believes he has enough
to give of what he has, to give because he knows

whatever it is we have to give
beyond ourselves is where we live
