(CROWD CHEERING) This is from me to you.

(THE GREATEST LOVE OF ALL PLAYING) I believe The children are our future Let's teach them well And let them lead the way Let's show them all The beauty they possess Inside Give them a sense of pride to make it easier Let the children's laughter Remind us how We used We used to To be Everybody's searching for a hero People need someone to look up to I never found anyone Who fulfilled my needs It's a lonely place to be So I learned to depend on me I decided long ago Never to walk in anyone's shadows If I fail, if I succeed At least I'll live as I believe, oh No matter what they take from me They can't take away our dignity Because the greatest Love of all Is happening to you and me My love I found The greatest The greatest love of all Inside of me The greatest love Of all Oh It is, it is so easy We gotta learn Learn to love ourselves Yes, it's the greatest Greatest love of all And if, by chance Your special place That you've been Dreaming of Should lead you To a lonely place Just You gotta find You gotta find You gotta find Babe, gotta find your... Find your strength In Find it in love (SONG ENDS) (CROWD CLAPPING) I love you.

(CROWD CHEERING) I cannot leave without singing this particular song.

I have... Like I said, I have been everywhere in this world.

I have... seen Japanese people in Japan.

I have seen Chinese people in China.

I have seen Italian people in Italy.

I have seen the Spanish in Spain.

I have finally come home to see my people.

(CROWD CHEERING) (HOME PLAYING) And this is simply what I think about it.

(VOCALIZES) When I think of home I think of a place Where there's Love overflowing I wish I was home I wish I was back there With the things I've been knowing Wind that makes the tall grass Bend into leaning And suddenly the raindrops that fall They have a meaning Sprinkling the scene Makes the scene So clean And, yes, there's a chance For me to go back Now that I have free direction Sure would be nice To be home Where there's so much love And affection And just maybe I can convince time To slow up Giving me enough time in my life To grow up Time, remain my friend And let me start Again And, yes Suddenly the world is gonna change its face But we know where we're going Don't we know where we're going?

Yeah.

I have had my mind Spun around and around in space And yet, I've I've watched it growing Oh, I know you're listening, God So please don't make it hard To know we shouldn't believe Everything we see Tell us, should we try and stay?

Or should we run away Would it be better Just to let things be?

Living here in my brand new world Yes, it might be a fantasy Lord, please don't let it be Because you taught me to love So I know I know this world is real It's so real It's real to me And I've learned we must look Inside our hearts To find To find A world full of love Just like yours Just like 'em Like mine Like my home (SONG ENDS) I love you!

I love you!

Thank you so much.

Good night.
