At a Monday event by DreamKEEPERS, an organization that promotes the vision of Martin Luther King Jr., Sophie Grégoire-Trudeau broke into a self-written song.
The Ottawa event, which presented a lifetime achievement award to former prime minister Joe Clark, featured Grégoire-Trudeau as a guest speaker. According to a reporter from News 1310, Grégoire-Trudeau said she wrote the song for her daughter, Ella-Grace.
She has something of a musical background, having studied classical flute and guitar and danced ballet, according to CTV News. In a 2011 interview with the blog Women On The Fence, she said she hopes to one day record an album.
The lyrics:
Some people doubt, that angels can fly
Some people fight, without knowing why
Some people live, without seeing the light
Some people live, oh no no no no, but not quite
And I know that good will prevail
And I can conquer the world
With all the love that I feel
When you smile back at me
When you smile back at me
I see it from the corner of your eye
The day that we will say goodbye
But nothing will take away what’s between you and me
When you smile back at me
When you smile back at me
When you smile, when you smile, when you smile,
I love you my child
