What If? Lyrics

by Diane Warren

Sometimes I don't understand
Feels like I'm living in a world gone mad
Look around, all around it's just the same
People just rush everywhere
No time to ever take the time to care
We're the ones we're the losers in this game
So where is the tenderness we've sacrificed for progress
And where's the love we need
You know it makes me wonder

What if everybody
Reached out with one hand (Reached with just one hand)
What if everybody what if everybody
Sang out with one voice (sang with just one voice)
Maybe we could change things
What if everybody what if everybody
Cared with just one heart (cared with their own heart)
What if everybody what if everybody
Tried to light one spark (tried to light one spark)
Maybe we could change things somehow
Somehow it's all up to us

Gotta take this world make it a world of love
Gotta do it now
Gotta find a way to make a change somehow
There's gotta be a way for us to make it better

What if everybody
Reached out with one hand (Reached with just one hand)
What if everybody what if everybody
Sang out with one voice (sang with just one voice)
Maybe we could change things
What if everybody what if everybody
Cared with just one heart (cared with their own heart)
What if everybody what if everybody
Tried to light one spark (tried to light one spark)
Maybe we could change things somehow

Here in our hearts
Oh the answer is there
If only we would look there inside them
We can make it better, we can make it better...
If we try together

(Repeat Chorus)
