Stevie Wonder - Take The Time Out Lyrics
Lying out on the street, theres a manThat needs somewhere to sleepAnd a bag-lady digs, through the trashHoping to find some food to eatIn the cold winters snow, walks a boyThat needs shoes for his feetIn an old run-down house, theres a childIn a crib that needs some heatIn the dark of the night, a young manSearches for a guiding lightAnd a young woman cries in despairCause she feels alone in lifeYou might ask yourself what in the hellDoes that have to do with meWell, here is your wake up call...Everything!Cause we all play a part in each others existenceTake the time out to love someoneReach your arms out and hug someoneBe it king or some homeless oneWe are all one underneath the sunTake the time out to be right thereTake the time out to show you careYoull be so glad when the day is doneYou took the time out to love someoneTheres a man in a house where theyre selling crackYet hes trying to be strongBut when lost in the sea, of no hopeHe must be saved from wrongDont say what you wont do, if for daysYou had no food to eatNor extremes you wont go, for a bed, shoesOr if your baby needed heatYou do not have the right to pre-judgeIf you dont share your strengthAnd you cant say youre down for the fightIf you wont go the lengthNow I dont really care what you feelIf you dont feel for lifeAnd dont care what you think if your wordsDont have ways and actions that perpetuate lifeTake the time out to love someoneReach your arms out and hug someoneBe it king or some homeless oneWe are all one underneath the sunTake the time out to be right thereTake the time out to show you careYoull be so glad when the day is doneYou took the time out to love someone(repeat)I think its time to...Take the time out to love someoneReach your arms out and hug someoneBe it king or some homeless oneWe are all one underneath the sunTake the time out to be right thereTake the time out to show you careYoull be so glad when the day is doneYou took the time out to love someone(repeat)
