A Special Salute to America - the Winners

THERE'S A WINNER WITHIN ALL OF US
AS TIMELESS AS TIME ITSELF
BORN IN THE BOSOM OF A GREATER LOVE
CRADLED IN DREAMS WE KEEP DREAMING OF
IT’S LOVE … WILL MAKE YOU

SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE ON A WINDY DAY
DANCE WITH WOLVES AS THEY RUN AWAY
SEE THE SUNSHINE WHEN THERE’S NONE TO SEE
AND BE IN LOVE, WITH YOUR HUMANITY …

EMBRACE THE WINNER IN YOU
TAKE YOUR PLACE, THAT’S WHAT WINNERS DO
THE HUMAN RACE, SEE’S THE WINNER’S TRUTH
NEVER LOSE FAITH, IN THE WINNER IN YOU …

THERE’S A WINNER IN YOU
THERE’S A WINNER IN YOU
AND THAT WINNER IS YOU
