If I take a look around me
If I even dare to try
I always ask myself this question
I always wonder why
Why do people seem so selfish?
Why do we hurt the ones we love?
How come we seem to be indifferent
To injustice unheard of?
I heard a voice inside my soul
Saying "Child don't you know"
Don't you know that love is a moment away
All it really takes is to reach out with a smiling face
Don't you know that there are many people in need,
So many bleeding hearts need to be healed
I guess there must be a beginning
I guess that someone has to start
If we just looked at one another
As together and not apart
If we looked behind the outside
If we looked through all the pain
I am sure that we would discover
We are pretty much the same
I heard a voice inside my soul
Saying "Child don't you know"
Don't you know that love is a moment away
All it really takes is to reach out with a smiling face
Don't you know that there are many people in need,
So many bleeding hearts need to be healed
Don't you know that love is a moment away
All it really takes is to reach out with a smiling face
Don't you know that there are many people in need,
So many bleeding hearts need to be healed
You gotta show a little love to somebody
Let you love shine on somebody
Put a smile on your face for somebody
Reach out and help somebody
I heard a voice inside my soul
Saying "Child don't you know"
Don't you know that love is a moment away
All it really takes is to reach out with a smiling face
Don't you know that there are many people in need,
So many bleeding hearts need to be healed
Don't you know that love is a moment away
All it really takes is to reach out with a smiling face
Don't you know that there are many people in need,
So many bleeding hearts need to be healed
You gotta show a little love to somebody
Let you love shine on somebody
Put a smile on your face for somebody
