Take a Look Around

There's a woman Sitting on the side of the road She's holding a battered sign There's shame in her eyes There's a young man But his face looks aged and tired Empty bottles at his feet No job that he could keep You could keep on walking But the road needs blocking You gotta find what needs to be found You'll never know how much it means To do just one little thing So take a look around There's a mother With a baby in her arms She's picking up bottles and cans This isn't what she had planned There's an old man Sitting alone in the cafe There are tears in his eyes No one left in his life Well you can keep on walking But the road needs blocking You gotta find what needs to be found You'll never know how much it means To do just one little thing So take a look around There's a busy nurse Working day and night She's saving precious lives But she's never satisfied There's a singer Pouring his heart out in the lines But no one's listening Cause they've got other things on their mind You could keep on walking But the road needs blocking You gotta find what needs to be found You'll never know how much it means To do just one little thing So take a look around You could keep on walking But the road needs blocking You gotta find what needs to be found You'll never know how much it means To do just one little thing So take a look around So take a look around
