Stevie Wonder - Take the Time Out lyrics

Your rating:

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)
