"Two Worlds" is the opening song of the 1999 Disney animated feature film Tarzan. Performed by Phil Collins, the song acts as a prologue for the film, centering the events of when Tarzan and his birth parents ended up in the African jungle and a family of gorillas eventually becomes broken thanks to a ravenous leopard named "Sabor". It is later reprised during the part where Kala takes Tarzan away after saving him from Sabor, and later at the end of the film when Tarzan, Jane and Porter continue spending their lives in the jungle.

Lyrics[]

Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see

A paradise untouched by man
Within this world blessed with love
A simple life, they live in peace

Softly tread the sand below your feet now
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see

Beneath the shelter of the trees
Only love can enter here
A simple life, they live in peace

Raise your head up
Lift high the load
Take strength from those that need you
Build high the walls
Build strong the beams
A new life is waiting
But danger's no stranger here

No words describe a mother's tears
No words can heal a broken heart
A dream is gone, but where there's hope

Somewhere something is calling for you
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see

Every moment now the bond grows stronger
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see

Phill Collins & Chorus: Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives,
To guide these lives we see
Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family

Tarzan: (yells)

Phil Collins: Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two Worlds, one family
Mandy Moore: Trust your heart
Both:' Let fate decide
Phil Collins: To guide these lives
Both: To guide these lives we see
Chorus: Put your faith in what you most believe in
All: Two worlds, one family

Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see...

Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see...

A paradise untouched by man
Within this world blessed with love
A simple life, they live in peace

Softly tread the sand below your feet now
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see

Beneath the shelter of the trees
Only love can enter here
A simple life, they live in peace

Raise your head up
Lift high the load
Take strength from those that need you
Build high the walls
Build strong the beams
A new life is waiting
But danger's no stranger here

No words describe a mother's tears
No words can heal a broken heart
The dream is gone, but where there's hope

Somewhere something is calling for you
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see

With every ending comes a new beginning
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these live,
To guide these lives we see
Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family

Jane Porter: With every ending comes a new beginning
Tarzan: Two worlds, one family
Both: Trust your heart
let fate decide
To guide these lives we see

Chorus: Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives,
To guide these lives we see
Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
