We Are All In This Together

Carole King


The just are seeking justice
The meek are reaching out
For something only children
Can really know about

And some men cry for mercy
While they deny their brothers' pain
And some men laugh for reasons
They can never quite explain

We are all in this together
And maybe we'll see that one day
When we conquer our fear together
When we finally find a way

And we all need forgiving
For all the damage done
For the things we do, not thinking
For the hurt that we've caused someone

But me, I keep on living 
Caught somewhere there between
The reason and the meaning
The vision and the dream

We are all in this together
I know that seems easy to say
But I don't use the word forever
It's enough just to say someday
