I like to say my college is living in this town |
|
Some days what seems hardest is simply sticking around |
|
With so much to see, places that I've yet to be |
|
And I like to say my colleague is the mother at the store |
|
The man who serves me coffee and john who lives next door |
|
We all study life, learning how to make things right |
|
We wanna change the world, we wanna make you proud |
|
But lately I've come to learn that it might start here and now |
|
But sometimes I look too hard at the big things |
|
When the best thing I can do is love you, love you |
|
Josue tells me stories about his home down south |
|
His mother can't cross the border but he's trying to get her out |
|
And he names a price and turns so I won't see him cry |
|
People make me hungry but people keep me sane |
|
Josue taught me more than a professor could explain |
|
About working hard and using what I have to do my part |
|
Cause I wanna change the world, I wanna make you proud |
|
But lately I've come to learn that it might start here and now |
|
But sometimes I look too hard at the big things |
|
When the best thing I can do is love you, love you |
|
But how do I get to love? I'll start unselfishly |
|
Can I hold out my hands? Do they even belong to me? |
|
How do I get to love? I guess it starts inside of me |
|
Cause sometimes I look too hard at the big things |
|
When the best thing I can do is love you |
