lyrics

Some folks just never been around
Been around – been around so much love
Some folks just never been around so much love
Standing hands in pockets
Acting rough like you don’t care
But I know you do
I know you desperately do

Chorus:
Some folks were told very early in life
There’s not enough for all
But there’s room enough
For perfect strangers and room enough for us

I can’t make you want to stay
I cannot hold your feet to the ground
And make you walk your road
That’s between you and your maker
There’s plenty of room for difference
Plenty of room enough for our cares
Room enough for some unexpected
Room enough for us

(Chorus)

I got a few kind words – But no guarantees
About the world that so divides us
Well there’s room enough for perfect strangers
That’s room enough for us

Some folks just never been around
Been around
Been around something so rare
Some folks just weren’t told how to take good care
Some folks dress their hopes in worn out clothes
Just to be safe
It’s hard for me to know you ‘til I see right in your eyes
