Yelled out the window, hey ain't got all day
Somebody said, “Don't you even care?”
Everybody's living like there ain't no tomorrow
Everybody's staring not knowing what He's going through
(They don't understand)
So please forgive my children
A mother riding on a city bus
So please forgive Your children
(They don't understand)
For they have not seen the light
Everybody's busy with their own situation
Maybe we should stop and take a little time
Go to heaven to make everything all right
A man hanging on a wooden cross
Bottled up, hurry it up trying to make a dream come true
Bottled up, hurry it up trying to make a dream come true
Giving everything to save the lost
She slowly turned around, looked up and stared
She said, “Please forgive them”
Everybody's staring not knowing what she's going through
In the middle of the night
If You were keen, you'd come down from there
Bottled up, hurry it up trying to make a dream come true
A man driving on the interstate
Kids are yelling kicking up a fuss
Everybody's living like there ain't no tomorrow
Their father struggled but he finally lost his fight
The old man looked around and caught his eye
(They don't understand)
Everybody's lost in their own little world
Everybody's busy with their own situation
Somebody hollered from the passing lane
I've been left all alone
You know, it's been a long life”
So please forgive me children
Do you let 'em do that everywhere?
He said, “Please forgive them”
'Cause you never really know what your neighbor's going through
And it's getting hard to drive
He said, “Please forgive me
'Cause you never really know what your neighbor's going through
Everybody's busy with their own situation
He went to heaven
But they've been up all night
My wife has passed away and my kids don't have the time
Everybody's staring not knowing what he's going through
(They don't understand)
Slowing down traffic making everybody late
(They don't understand)
(They don't understand)
Somebody said, “You don't have a prayer”
Maybe we should stop and take a little time
'Cause you never really know what your neighbor's going through
(They don't understand)
Everybody's lost in their own little world
Maybe we should stop and take a little time
They'll come to know me when I come back to life
Everybody's lost in their own little world
(They don't understand)
(They don't understand)
The man just turned His head looked up and stared
Everybody's living like there ain't no tomorrow
