Lyrics

We are friends, we are brothersAlways there lookin’ out for each otherIn a world where so many dreams are broken apartBut when the world tries to beat usWe hang tough, ain’t no way they’ll defeat usYou and I will always survive, together we’re strong
Heart to heartAny storm we can weatherYou and I we’ve becomeUnited forever
Two hearts that can beat as oneThere ain’t a single thing, we can’t overcomeWe’re indestructible (indestructible)We’ve got the power of loveSo strong we can generateA wall of solid loveNothing can penetrateWe’re indestructible
There’s a power, deep inside usAin’t no one that could ever divide usWe won’t fall, we’ll show ’em allJust what we’re made of
You and IWe’re in it togetherWe stand strong through it allUnited forever
Two hearts that can beat as oneThere ain’t a single thing, we can’t overcomeWe’re indestructible (indestructible)We’ve got the power of loveSo strong we can generateA wall of solid loveNothing can penetrateWe’re indestructible
Heart to heartAny storm we can weatherYou and I we’ve becomeUntied forever
Two hearts that can beat as oneThere ain’t a single thing, we can’t overcomeWe’re indestructible (indestructible)We’ve got the power of loveSo strong we can generateA wall of solid loveNothing can penetrateWe’re indestructible
