Anthem

I woke up today A song was swimming in my head And I hummed it to myself As I got out of bed And on the way to take a shower It all just dawned on me That a song like this just might go down in history I quickly ran back to get my guitar, a pen and some paper 'Cause this whole world Needs an anthem And I'm trying to put the words where they belong Yeah, this whole world Needs an anthem And I'm hoping everyone will sing along Well I quickly got to work And put the song in gear And my neighbor rang the doorbell Said it caught his ear I was playing it so loud The whole neighborhood could hear And at night from every household It became quite clear Everyone just singing along The same notes the same song Maybe I heard it wrong 'Cause this whole world Needs an anthem And I'm trying to put the words where they belong Yeah, this whole world Needs an anthem And I'm hoping everyone will sing along Everyone was singing along The same notes the same song Maybe I heard that wrong 'Cause this whole world Needs an anthem And I'm trying to put the words where they belong (Where they belong) Yeah, this whole world Needs an anthem And I'm hoping everyone will sing along (Will sing along) Yeah, this whole world Needs an anthem And I'm trying to put the words where they belong (Where they belong) Yeah, this whole world Needs an anthem And I'm hoping everyone will sing along
