GOD'S SAME SKY
(STEVE SESKIN / DEAN MILLER)
She was sittin' at the counter eatin' breakfast by herself
She was gettin' up in years and well to do
A different color stranger came walkin' through the door
When he sat down beside her she held her purse a little tighter
He pretended not to notice it's just easier that way
But I could see the pain in his eyes
'Cause this was not the first time and it won't be the last
And it made me so angry and it made me wanna say
CHORUS:
Under God's same sky we are born to love
Yet we spend our lives so full of fear so quick to judge
In a world with so much hurt and hatred
I still believe it's human nature to be kind
We all live and die
Under God's same sky
She coughed up her last quarter and sat down on the bus
She was broken disheveled and a little high
Some of us were starin' and some looked the other way
I can't say it makes me proud but I just joined that crowd
Then I started thinkin' what if I was in her place
Fate might put me there some day who knows
I was tryin' to see the beauty underneath her tattered soul
When the truth spoke to me and I stood up and said hello 'cause
REPEAT CHORUS
Do unto others
It's better to give
What goes around comes around
Live and let live
