Those well off and who have everything
Could help those who have nothing at all
And those that are up and feeling stronger now
Could help those who are about to fall
*
Chorus
Then the world would be a better place for living
More forgiving, everyday
If those that have learned how to hold their own
Could help those who are slipping away
*
Those that have loved and lost everything
Could help those who have never loved at all
Those that are free now no longer feel the pain
Could help those who are still behind the wall
*
Chorus
Then the world would be a better place for living
More forgiving, everyday
If those that have learned how to hold their own
Could help those who are slipping away
*
Sometimes I feel I'm slipping away
