(Rise! to me, to me, to me, to me)
Verse 1: No man's an island
But this woman rules the sea
From where she's standing
She looks a lot like you to me.
Pre-chorus: We've come too far to fall and
We want what's free for all in
Silence, she calls the weak to Rise!
Chorus: Give me your tired, your poor Rise! Give me your tired, your poor
Yearning to breathe free, Yearning to breathe free,
The refuse of your shore The refuse of your shore
Send these, homeless, to me, to me, oh! Send these, homeless, to me, to me!
Verse 2: No man's an island
But this woman rules the sea
From where she's standing
She looks a lot like truth to me.
Pre-chorus: We've come too far to fall and
We want what's free for all in
Silence she calls the weak to Rise!
Chorus: Give me your tired, your poor Give me your tired, your poor
Yearning to breathe free, Yearning to breathe free,
The refuse of your shore The refuse of your shore
Send these, homeless, to me, to me, oh! Send these, homeless, to me, to me!
Bridge: To me, to me - to me, to me
To me, to me....Rise!
Oh send these, Oh send these
Oh send these
To me, to me, to me
To me, to me, to me
Oh send these to me...Rise!
Chorus: Give me your tired, your poor Give me your tired, your poor
Yearning to breathe free, Yearning to breathe free,
The refuse of your shore The refuse of your shore
Send these, homeless, to me, to me, oh! Send these, homeless, to me, to me!
(...to me, to me, to me...)
