Dreamgirls - Family
What about what I need?
(Curtis says it's the best thing for the group)
What about what's best for me?
(He feels the Dreams can cross over)
What about how I feel?
(But when we're famous,
I'll write great things for you.Effie, do it for me)
What about me? What about me?
It's more than you
It is more than me
No matter what we are
We are a family
This dream is for all of us
This one can be real
And you can't stop us now
Because of how you feel
It's more than you
It is more than me
Whatever dreams we have
They're for the family
We're not alone anymore
Now there are others there
And that dream's big enough
for all of us to share
So don't think you're going
you're not going anywhere
You're staying and taking your share
And if you get afraid again
I'll be there
We're a family
Like a giant tree
Growing stronger growing wiser
We're growing free
We need you
We're a family
