  • Well things can be broken down
    In this world of ours
    You don't have to be a famous person
    Just to make a mark
    A mother can be an inspiration
    To her little son
    Change his thoughts, his mind, his life,
    Just with her gentle hum hum
    So different, yet so the same
    Two sisters only have their parents to blame
    It's rare that two can get along
    But when they do, they're inseparable
    Such a blessing comes to few, few

    The sky is full of clouds and
    My world's full of people
    You got the different kinds, with different ways
    It would take a lifetime to explain
    Not one's the same, he (2nd time) hey

    He and she, two different people
    With two separate lives
    Then you put the two together
    And you get a spectacular surprise
    'Cause one can teach the other one
    What she doesn't know
    While still the other fills a place inside
    He never knew had room to grow grow, grow

    The sky is full of clouds and
    My world's full of people
    You got the different kinds, with different ways
    It would take a lifetime to explain
    Not one's the same, (2nd time) hey

    Oh yeah
    Once in a while I sit back
    And think about the planet
    Most of the time I trip on it
    To kick back and think about
    How massive it all is
    And how many others are one it

    I often think about the world
    In which I live today, of animals and plants
    And nature's gifts set on display
    But the most amazing thing
    That I've seen in my time
    Are all the different people
    And all their different minds
    And different ways
    It would take a lifetime to explain
    Not one's exactly the same

    So many different people
    So many different kinds
    So many many many different people
    So many different
    Look at me, I'm a person
    Look at me, I'm my own person
    So many different people
    So many different kinds
    For better or for worse, different people Publisher: Universal Music Publishing Group
