"We Are One" is a song composed by Tom Snow for The Lion King II: Simba's Pride. It was released on September 8, 1998, as part of the film's soundtrack. It is sung by Simba and Kiara as Simba teaches her that their family is one.
Lyrics
Simba:
As you go through life, you'll see
There is so much that we
Don't understand
And the only thing we know
Is things don't always go
The way we planned
But you'll see every day
That we'll never turn away
When it seems all your dreams come undone
We will stand by your side
Filled with hope and filled with pride
We are more than we are
We are one
Chorus:
Family, family
We are one (2x)
Kiara:
If there's so much I must be
Can I still just be me
The way I am?
Can I trust in my own heart?
Or am I just one part
Of some big plan?
Simba:
Even those who are gone
Are with us as we go on
Your journey has only begun
Tears of pain, tears of joy
One thing nothing can destroy
Is our pride, deep inside
We are one
Repeat chorus
Simba:
We are one, you and I
We are like the earth and sky
One family under the sun
All the wisdom to lead
All the courage that you need
You will find when you see
We are one
Chorus:
(One, one, one)
Family, family
We are one (repeat)
