Have you ever seen a swallow stitching
|
Through a shaft of sunlight in the morning?
|
Have you seen a willow bending
|
In the wind that draws its way along the canyon?
|
Has your body felt the shock of deep immersion
|
At the bottom of the river?
|
Has your heart felt the hurt of someone
|
Who turns and walks away forever?
|
|
Have you struck your head and tore your hair
|
'Cause people haven't got the love of living?
|
Have you ground your teeth and clenched your fist
|
Because your friends have lost the art of giving?
|
They don't take the time to stop and think
|
Of all the brothers in the world with nothing
|
Of the man who takes the food and drink
|
And freedom from the hands of children dying
|
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
|
Have you ever seen a swallow stitching
|
Through a shaft of sunlight in the morning?
|
Have you seen a willow bending
|
In the wind that draws its way along the canyon?
|
Has your body felt the shock of deep immersion
|
At the bottom of the river?
|
Has your heart felt the hurt of someone
|
Who turns and walks away forever?
|
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
Look around you
|
|

Look Around You
