rushing somewhere all the time
how many of them are knowing
why
people pass by out my window
pushing on to get ahead
always the same where they end up
dead
don't let me bring you down now
life is a beautiful thing
i just wish you stopped to notice
sing
oh sing from your heart
and tell me your life
tell me your dreams
and how you really feel
oh sing from your soul
and tell me your story
what really matters
and what is real
people are standing in doorways
hiding from the sun or rain
how many of you are hiding
pain
people are standing in shadows
watching the games others play
how many of you are lonely
today
don't let me bring you down now
i just want to give you hope
a hand if you are falling
rope
people there is something better
than chasing material dreams
rushing past what really matters
you miss the point of life, it seems
you know you take nothing with you
when your time comes and you must go
so what do you do to define you
when you're gone, how will we know?
don't let me bring you down now
i just want you to mean something
take this moment to matter
sing
oh sing from your heart
and tell me your life
tell me your dreams
and how you really feel
oh sing from your soul
and tell me your story
what really matters
and what is real
