LYRICS: “Best Things in Life”

Sleeping in the corner on the mat of faith,

Dreaming of the world where I am not afraid,

Playing on the fields, rushing down the streets,

The magic of the book, daily I perceive,

These are the best things in life…

I wanna stay here for a while,

For this is a world to hope and shine,

for these are the best things in life,

Dancing in the rain with my group of mains,

Making fun of people, passing down the lanes,

Jumping from the stairs, swinging in the chairs,

Spending hours calming down a friend,

Sharing love and likes for the favourite band,

These are the best things in life,

I wanna stay here for a while…

I am here with you for this moment, just laugh,

Forget about all wories and glories, just laugh,

These are the best things in life,

I wanna stay here for a while…

From Syria, Eritrea, and Ethiopia Most of these children had known each other for 15 minutes, before they were singing. They had all just arrived in the United States. The trip to the Metropolitan Museum was planned as a day to welcome new friends with art and camaraderie.
