LYRICS

[VERSE 1]
It isn't easy building something out of nothing
Especially when the road ahead’s a rocky one
But if we gather all our courage and conviction,
And hold our dream up high,
The challenge will be won.

[CHORUS]
So now we look around us and we see
A nation built with love by you and me
A land to treasure right down to the core
Our home, our heart, our Singapore.

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Our home, our heart, our Singapore.

[VERSE 2]
Through many years gone by, we’ve moved ahead together
We’ve built a brave new world where we could shine and grow
And now we only have to look towards tomorrow
To carry on the dream as far as it will go.

[CHORUS]
So now we look around us and we see
A nation built with love by you and me
A land to treasure right down to the core
Our home, our heart, our Singapore.

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Our home, our heart, our Singapore.

[BRIDGE]
And amazing as it seems,
It all started with a dream.
And our dreaming isn't done
‘Cause the best is yet to come.

[CHORUS]
So now we look around us and we see
A nation built with love by you and me
A land to treasure right down to the core
Our home, our heart, our Singapore.

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Our home,
Our heart,
Our dream,
Our Singapore.
Our Singapore.
