Lyrics
Again We Walk On By / Album Echoes Of Yesterday / June 01 2018
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey
(v1)
People hug the street
Struggling to eat
We don’t even ask why
We don’t see the shame
Or feel their pain
We just walk on by
(chorus)
Tell me, have we done
Anything for anyone
Or do we only think of our self
Tell me, do we care
Do we ever share
A little hope with someone else
(v2)
Single mom’s weep
They’ve rent to meet
We don’t blink an eye
We’re sitting pretty
Not feeling pity
Again, we walk on by
(chorus)
Tell me, have we done
Anything for anyone
Or do we only think of our self
Tell me, do we care
Do we ever share
A little hope with someone else
(v3)
An extended hand
Could help them stand
But we don’t even try
We’re preoccupied
Along for the ride
Again, we walk on by
Instrumental
(bridge)
Compassion’s out of fashion
When we’re on easy street
Riding high walking by
Traveling among the elite
(chorus)
Tell me, have we done
Anything for anyone
Or do we only think of our self
Tell me, do we care
Do we ever share
A little hope with someone else
