People fall apart, I can't tell you why People make mistakes Comes as no suprise People break your heart Can't look you in the eye People need forgiveness, I'll tell you why I'll tell you why and I've been there Don't make light if you don't care Because you just might fall And need some understanding The world can be so cold I can't tell you why It's hard to see it straight With teardrops in your eyes Get pushed until you break No one by your side The world can bring you down I'll tell you why I'll tell you why and I've been there Don't make light if you don't care Because you just might fall And need some understanding You got to share around some loving With each other There comes a time when we all need it In our lives People stand and cry I can't tell you why Watch the world roll by Their oceans have run dry And people hide there faces You can't catch their eyes People need forgiveness, I'll tell you why I'll tell you why and I've been there Don't make light if you don't care Because you just might fall And need some understanding
