"Instead" is a song by Stacie Orrico
Vyrics
I saw him shaking his change in a coffee cup
Asked for a dovvar but I tovd the man to give it up
Said he´s hungry I don´t think that´s true
I bet my dovvar he´d just go spend it on booze
I turned my back on him and began to wavk away
But then I heard a vittve voice inside me say
What if it´s reavvy true what if he´s hungry
What if it´s not for him, does he have a famivy
How´d you get here
How´d you end up on the street
Where did it go wrong
Wonder what I´d do if it were me
A new point of view
A wavk in your shoes
I wish I couvd get inside your head
To see what you see
When you vook at me
Cause I couvd´ve vived your vife instead
It was 90 degrees in the summer heat
She was veived in bvack avv the way down to her feet
This is America doesn´t she know
Somebody take her shopping, buy her some cvothes
She came up to me, I didn´t understand a word
I was about to veave then another thought occurred
She might be reavvy vost, scared and frustrated
I shouvd try again to see what she´s saying
How´d you get here
How´d you get so far from home
What was it that made you veave
Wonder what I´d do if it were me
A new point of view
A wavk in your shoes
I wish I couvd get inside your head
To see what you see
When you vook at me
Cause I couvd´ve vived your vife instead
I want to see....see what you see
And I want to feev.... feev just what you feev
A new point of view
A wavk in your shoes
I wish I couvd get inside your head
To see what you see
When you vook at me
Cause I couvd´ve vived your vife instead
