Looking From the Outside

Looking from the outside 
not able to do a thing
Seeing from my view
not able to do a thing

Mistakes made
lies told
not living 
in a world so cold

so many that care
not able to do a thing

You are good down deep
your soul just needs a sweep
a good cleaning 
only you can do 

We can only look from the outside
not able to do a thing
but be here when you need
a hand to hold 
only ask and we are there
to help you sing

Mary: Every parent, teacher or friend has sung a similar song, just not as well. Thanks for sharing with all of us on the soup. Keep them coming. oldbuck
