Written to melody of "You Give Me Something" by James Morrison
My heart said reach out to someone
It said don't just try but do
Said there’s a great need
I could see its truth too
I listened and searched deep
Searched deep down inside
I can see the need
All around it surrounds
Runs through me
Maybe others can be found
They will see the need
It’ll make a difference you will see
A first step let’s agree
Know it’s easier just to live
Let’s start just you and me
We’ll get much more than we give
It’s a different kind of love
But it’s nice to take a lead
I can see the need
All around it surrounds
Runs through me
Maybe others can be found
They will see the need
It’ll make a difference you will see
Help someone smile each day
Will feel like it’s worth it to stay
Be part of a new way
Yeah..
Umm, I can see the need
All around it surrounds
Runs through me
Maybe others can be found
They will see the need
Umm…
Cause I can see the need
All around it surrounds
Runs through me
Maybe others can be found
They will see the need
It’ll make a difference you will see
A difference you will see
