STEVIE WONDER lyrics : "Take The Time Out"

Lying out on the street, there's a man
That needs somewhere to sleep
And a bag-lady digs, through the trash

Hoping to find some food to eat
In the cold winter's snow, walks a boy
That needs shoes for his feet

In an old run-down house, there's a child
In a crib that needs some heat
In the dark of the night, a young man

Searches for a guiding light
And a young woman cries in despair
Cause she feels alone in life

You might ask yourself what in the hell
Does that have to do with me
Well, here is your wake up call...

"Everything!"
Cause we all play a part in each other's existence


Take the time out to love someone
Reach your arms out and hug someone
Be it king or some homeless one

We are all one underneath the sun

Take the time out to be right there

Take the time out to show you care
You'll be so glad when the day is done
You took the time out to love someone


There's a man in a house where they're selling crack
Yet he's trying to be strong

But when lost in the sea, of no hope
He must be saved from wrong
Don't say what you won't do, if for days

You had no food to eat
Nor extremes you won't go, for a bed, shoes
Or if your baby needed heat

You do not have the right to pre-judge

If you don't share your strength


And you can't say you're down for the fight
If you won't go the length

Now I don't really care what you feel
If you don't feel for life
And don't care what you think if your words

Don't have ways and actions that perpetuate life

Take the time out to love someone

Reach your arms out and hug someone
Be it king or some homeless one
We are all one underneath the sun


Take the time out to be right there
Take the time out to show you care

You'll be so glad when the day is done
You took the time out to love someone
[Repeat]


I think it's time to...


Take the time out to love someone
Reach your arms out and hug someone
Be it king or some homeless one

We are all one underneath the sun

Take the time out to be right there

Take the time out to show you care
You'll be so glad when the day is done
You took the time out to love someone

[Repeat]
