| Heal the Heart |
|
| Lyrics |
|
Sitting on the corner, cold and out of place With his cardboard sign and empty can Despair painted on his face People hurry past him, this guy with no name Feeling like a burden His heart is filled with shame Is there anybody out there, who sees him as a man Will someone show him kindness, have the grace to understand He needs hope he needs peace Cause right now he feels alone He needs to believe That chains can break apart People can change faith can heal the heart She's waving down a taxi, Polished nails perfect hair Prada purse Armani coat Shopping bags everywhere Underneath the latest fashion she doesn't feel alive A closet full of high price shoes won't fill the void inside She sees him on the corner he looks her in the eye She sees in him the same thing that she's missing in her life She needs hope she needs peace Cause right now she feels alone she needs to believe That chains can break apart People can change faith can heal the heart There are miracles, everyday She reached down to help him up And found that blessings go both ways There is hope there is peace We're not alone we can believe That chains can break apart People can change faith can heal the heart People can change faith can heal the heart |
