Neighbor (Piano Version)

Sometimes it's easier to jump to conclusions
Than walk across the street
It's like I'd rather fill the blank with illusions
Than take the time to see

You are trying to close the backdoor of your car
You are balancing the groceries and a baby in your arms
You are more than just a sign in your front yard
You are my neighbour

I can get so lost in the mission
Of defending what I think
I've been surfing on a sea of opinions
But just behind the screen

You are grateful that the work day's finally done
You are stuck in miles of traffic, looking at your phone
You're trying to feel a little less alone
You're my neighbour

When the chasm between us feels so wide
That it's hard to imagine the other side
But we don't have to see things eye to eye
For me to love you like you are my neighbor
My neighbor

Oh, to fear the unfamiliar
Is the easy way to go
But I believe we are connected
More than we might ever know

There's a light that shines on both the rich and poor
Looks beyond where we came from and who we voted for
'Till I can't see a stranger anymore
I see my neighbor

May my heart be an open door to my neighbor
You are my neighbor
