One Man

One Man - Richard Marx (理查德.馬克斯)

It's a peaceful thing to know

That freedom

As a rule belongs to me

There's something very wrong

When the color

Of a man is all you see

After all this time

How can a single voice explain

Any reason for the pain

We all have seen

It's not a dream

One man stood tall

And faced the devil

With his back to the wall

And took one step

Closer to heaven above

So he took a stand and walked

Where no one else

Would dare to even try

It was the only way

If not for bravery

The soul would surely die

And right before my eyes

He gave his life unselfishly

So that all the father's

Children could be free

Like you and me

One man stood tall

And faced the devil

With his back to the wall

And took one step

Closer to heaven above

Before his work is done

We've got to put an end

To this game of choosing sides

I want us to be one

And I won't let it go

Till it's over

I'm here waiting

One man stood tall

And faced the devil

With his back to the wall

And took one step

Closer to heaven above

One man stood tall

And faced the devil

With his back to the wall

One step closer

To heaven above

One man stood tall

With his back to the wall

I'm waiting waiting
