    This song is only available on the GREATEST HITS cd. Mmmm hmmm.It was originally performed at one of John Denver's Windstar symposiums. And I sang it. It speaks to the idea that if bio-diversity makes for strong forests, wouldn't ethno-diversity make for a strong global community? You betcha.

    Story Behind the Song
    I was walking through the local park that just happens to have all kinds of different trees and plants. And I noticed, maybe even for the first time, that in any given spot there were dozens of different kinds of species of tree and plant. And, I figured, that's why this forest is so healthy.
    BIO-DIVERSITY.
    Why, then, wouldn't it be as true for humans. Different kinds of humans. Healthy human race.

    Lyrics
    It takes so many different trees to make a forest
    so many different fish to make a sea
    It takes so many different geese to make a gaggle
    And if you wanna talk about you and me

    WE ARE A HUMAN FAMILY
    A HUMAN FAMILY
    BROTHERS AND SISTERS THATS WHAT WE ARE
    WE ARE A HUMAN FAMILY
    A HUMAN FAMILY
    SHARING THE LIGHT FROM THE NEAREST STAR

    It takes so many different stars to make the heavans
    so many different countries to make a world
    It takes so many different flowers to make a meadow
    But if you wanna talk about boys and girls

    WE ARE A HUMAN FAMILY
    A HUMAN FAMILY
    BROTHERS AND SISTERS THATS WHAT WE ARE
    WE ARE A HUMAN FAMILY
    A HUMAN FAMILY
    SHARING THE LIGHT FROM THE NEAREST STAR

    There must be many kinds of trees, in a forest
    For that forest to survive
    Evry plant and tree gives something special
    To keep that family alive

    WE ARE A HUMAN FAMILY
    A HUMAN FAMILY
    BROTHERS AND SISTERS THATS WHAT WE ARE
    WE ARE A HUMAN FAMILY
    A HUMAN FAMILY
    SHARING THE LIGHT FROM THE NEAREST STAR
