[00:10.75] I saw him shaking his change in a coffee cup
[00:13.50] Asked for a dollar but I told the man to give it up
[00:16.06] Said he's hungry i dont think that it's true
[00:18.68] I bet my dollar he'd just spend it on booze
[00:21.10] I turned my back on him and began to walk away
[00:23.75] But then i heard a little voice inside me say
[00:26.34] What if it's really true?
[00:28.01] What if he's hungry?
[00:28.86] What if it's not for him?
[00:29.85] Does he have a family?
[00:31.21] How'd you get here
[00:32.71] How'd you end up on the street
[00:36.44] Where did you go wrong
[00:39.06] Wonder what I'd do if it were me
[00:41.69] Chorus:
[00:42.63] A new point of view
[00:45.35] A walk in your shoes
[00:47.75] I wish I could get inside your head
[00:52.56] To see what you see
[00:55.37] When you look at me
[00:58.14] Cause I could have lived your life instead
[01:05.80] Verse 2:
[01:07.65] It was 90 degrees in the Summer heat
[01:10.33] She was veiled in black all the way down to her feet
[01:12.92] This is America doesn't she know
[01:15.46] Somebody take her shopping buy her some clothes
[01:17.99] She came up to me I didn't understand a word
[01:20.57] I was about to leave then another thought occurred
[01:23.10] She might be really lost scared and frustrated
[01:25.66] I should try again to see what she's saying
[01:28.41] How'd you get here
[01:30.78] How'd you get so far from home
[01:33.13] What was it that made you leave
[01:35.76] Wonder what I'd do if it were me
[01:38.60] Chorus:
[01:39.47] A new point of view
[01:41.88] A walk in your shoes
[01:44.37] I wish I could get inside your head
[01:49.65] To see what you see when you look at me
[02:00.37] I wanna see oh see what you see
[02:05.34] And I wanna feel oh feel just what you feel
[02:19.52] Chorus:
[02:20.59] A new point of view
[02:23.00] A walk in your shoes
[02:25.73] I wish I could get inside your head
[02:30.86] To see what you see when you look at me
[02:36.14] Cause I could have lived your life instead
[02:52.42] To see what you see when you look at me
[02:56.66] Cause I could have lived your life instead
[03:06.37] Chorus(2x)
[03:07.08] Cuz I could have lived your life instead(2x)
[03:17.49] Cuz I could have lived your life instead(2x)
