Take a Look Around

There's a woman
Sitting on the side of the road
She's holding a battered sign
There's shame in her eyes

There's a young man
But his face looks aged and tired
Empty bottles at his feet
No job that he could keep

You could keep on walking
But the road needs blocking
You gotta find what needs to be found

You'll never know how much it means
To do just one little thing
So take a look around

There's a mother
With a baby in her arms
She's picking up bottles and cans
This isn't what she had planned

There's an old man
Sitting alone in the cafe
There are tears in his eyes
No one left in his life

Well you can keep on walking
But the road needs blocking
You gotta find what needs to be found

You'll never know how much it means
To do just one little thing
So take a look around

There's a busy nurse
Working day and night
She's saving precious lives
But she's never satisfied

There's a singer
Pouring his heart out in the lines
But no one's listening
Cause they've got other things on their mind

You could keep on walking
But the road needs blocking
You gotta find what needs to be found

You'll never know how much it means
To do just one little thing
So take a look around

You could keep on walking
But the road needs blocking
You gotta find what needs to be found

You'll never know how much it means
To do just one little thing
So take a look around
So take a look around
