Someone Else’s Place

Someone Else’s Place
Written by Moshe Skier

Have you ever left a thought unsaid?
Have you ever left a word unspoken?
Don’t go sayin’ that you didn’t really mean it?
It’s not worth the trust that will be broken.

Have you ever smiled and said how nice?
Have you ever clapped and said how good?
Don’t ignore the small inconsequential’s,
There’s no reason why you ever should.

Chorus: Just think of how it would feel to be
In someone else’s place, you see
A little change and you might agree.
It’s a better world for you and me.

Have you ever given up your seat?
Have you ever lent a helping hand?
Don’t pretend that you’re tired or you’re busy,
It just takes a few more minutes than you planned.

Have you ever really stopped to listen?
Have you ever really thought it through
Don’t go ahead and jump to your conclusions?
It pays to know just what you want to do. Chorus……

Have you ever been begging in the street?
Have you ever been feeling so unsure?
Giving a dollar to his cause won’t hurt you.
But it would make him feel secure.

Have you ever left a thought unsaid?
Have you ever left a word unspoken?
Don’t go sayin’ that you didn’t really mean it?
It’s not worth the trust that will be broken. Chorus…
