Instead(Stacie Orrico Album Version) - Stacie Orrico

作曲：Sean Hosein/Dane DeViller/Anthony Anderson/Stacie Orrico/Steve Smith

I saw him shaking his

Change in a coffee cup

Asked for a dollar but

I told the man to give it up

Said he's hungry

I don't think that's true

I bet my dollar he'd just

Go spend it on booze

I turned my back on him

And began to walk away

But then I heard a little

Voice inside me say

What if it's really true

What if he's hungry

What if it's not for him

Does he have a family

How'd you get here

How'd you end up on the street

Where did it go wrong

Wonder what I'd do if it were me

A new point of view

A walk in your shoes

I wish I could get inside your head

To see what you see

When you look at me

'Cause I could've lived

Your life instead

It was ninety degrees in the summer heat

She was veiled in black

All the way down to her feet

This is america doesn't she know

Somebody take her shopping

Buy her some clothes

She came up to me

I didn't understand a word

I was about to leave then

Another thought occurred

She might be really lost

Scared and frustrated

I should try again to

See what she's saying

How'd you get here

How'd you get so far from home

Where was didn't you leave

Wonder what I'd do if it were me

A new point of view

A walk in your shoes

I wish I could get inside your head

To see what you see

When you look at me

'Cause I could've lived your life instead

I would see oh oh

Oh see what you see

And I would feel

Oh feel just what you feel

A new point of view

A walk in your shoes

I wish I could get inside your head

To see what you see

When you look at me

'Cause I could've lived your life instead

A new point of view

A walk in your shoes

I wish I could get inside your head

To see what you see

When you look at me

'Cause I could've lived your life instead

'Cause I could've lived your life instead

'Cause I could've lived your life instead
