[Verse 1: Miten]
Ever been lonely?
Ever felt out of place?
Ever cried yourself to sleep at night
Praying for descending grace?
Ever danced alone in the moonlight?
Dancing like there's nobody there
The whole world lookin' on, but
What do you care?
[Chorus: Miten & Deva Premal]
Humaniversal
We're all reaching for
The stars in the sky
Humaniversal
You and I
You and I
[Verse 2: Miten]
Ever been to India?
Seen the world from ground zero?
Thirteen-year-old mother with a baby in her arms
Knockin' on your taxi window
Lights change
And leave her standin' in the road
Still her eyes come back to haunt you
Wherever you go
[Chorus: Miten & Deva Premal]
Humaniversal
We can all hear
Her baby cry
Humaniversal
You and I
[Bridge: Miten & Deva Premal]
And after all
It's only life
We come and go
In the wink of an eye
We say hello
We say goodbye
That's all
(Ah)
That's all
(Ah)
(La la la la)
(La la)
[Verse 3: Miten]
And what about the Dalai Lama?
What about that smile?
A simple monk from the roof of the world
Living in exile
And he can't go back
And he can't go home
What does that say to you and me?
Speaking of love and compassion
Even towards his enemy
[Chorus: Miten & Deva Premal]
Humaniversal
(Ooh)
Say a prayer for his people
When you're driving home tonight
Humaniversal
(Ooh)
Say a prayer for him
When you turn out the light
(Ah)
Tonight
(Oh, ah)
[Outro: Miten]
Humaniversal
You and I
You and I
You and I
