Lyrics
Powerline: Yeah, yeah! Hey, yeah!
I got myself a notion and one I know that you'll understand
We set the world in motion, by reaching out for each other's hand
Maybe we'll discover what we should've known all along (Yeah)
One way or another, together's where we both belong
Chorus: If we listen to each other's heart, we'll find we're never too far apart
And maybe love is the reason why, for the first time ever, we're seeing it eye to eye (I2I)
Powerline: If a wall should come between us, too high to climb, too hard to break through,
I know that love will lead us, and find a way to bring me to you
So don't be in a hurry, think before you count us out (Oh)
You don't have to worry, I won't ever let you down (Nothing's gonna stop us now)
Chorus: If we listen to each other's heart, we'll find we're never too far apart (Oh yeah)
And maybe love is the reason why (Fu yeah), for the first time ever, we're seeing it eye to eye (I2I)
Love is why we're seeing it eye to eye (I2I) (Yes, we're seeing it eye to eye [I2I])
Seeing it eye to eye [I2I] (Love is why we're seeing it)
I think we're seeing it eye to eye [I2I] (eye to eye [I2I])
Eye to eye [I2I], we're seeing it eye to eye [I2I] (eye to eye [I2I])
Powerline: If you're ever lonely, then stop! You don't have to be
After all, it's only a beat away from you to me (Take a look inside and see) [Yeah!]
Chorus: If we listen to each other's heart, we'll find we're never too far apart
And maybe love is the reason why, for the first time ever, we're seeing it eye to eye (I2I)
If we listen to each other's heart, we'll find we're never too far apart
And maybe love is the reason why, for the first time ever, we're seeing it eye to eye (I2I)
Powerline: Seeing it eye to eye [I2I]
Seeing it eye to eye [I2I]
We're seeing it eye to eye [I2I], baby
Treeny: For the first time
Powerline: For the first time
Eye to eye [I2I]
Seeing it
Seeing it, baby
Seeing it eye to eye [I2I]
For the first time ever
Hey, yeah, seeing it, baby
We're seeing it eye to eye [I2I]
Seeing it (Come on, baby) [Yeah!]
Powerline: Eye to eye [I2I]
Backup Dancers: Eye to eye [I2I]
Powerline: Eye to eye [I2I]
Treeny: Eye to eye [I2I]!
Crowd: (cheering) Yeah!
(From the closing credits) Goofy: (hollering)
