Walk a Mile

Slip on these old shoes, pull them on, if you dare Walk in them a while, but walk in them, with care Pray, watch for the pitfalls and beware my mistakes For they've followed a path that you've yet to take The road can be dark and there's been many a stumble But you'll ask for a guide when you're ready and humble Those you meet on the path, both at the end and the start Will be there just to show you that the truths in your heart So, walk in these shoes, walk along for a while Tread where I have walked, keep your head up and smile Breathe the air that I've breathed, see the sights I have seen Feel the things that I've felt, know the man that I've been
