Today I heard the strangest
I heard the strangest song
A DJ, a star away is playing it to turn us on
My heart started glowing
I feel it inside, it's flowing
I say I know, I know, I know we're only human
I know, I know, I know how we're designed, yeah
Oh, I know, I know, I know we're only human
But from another planet
Still they call us humankind
Today I had the strangest
Feeling that I belong
Before I was dying
I feel it inside, now I'm flying
I say I know, I know, I know we're only human
I know, I know, I know how we're designed, yeah
Oh, I know, I know, I know we're only human
But from another planet
Still they call us humankind
Beforе I was dying
I feel it inside, now I'm flying
I know, I know, I know we're only human
I know, I know, I know how we're designed
Oh, I know, I know, I know we're only human
But we're capable of kindness
So they call us humankind
