What If
Reba McEntire Lyrics

Sometimes I don't understand
There are moments when the world around me seems difficult to comprehend.

Feels like I'm living in a world gone mad
It seems like the world is full of chaos, madness and unrest.

Look around, all around it's just the same
Everything I see reminds me that the world is stuck in a routine.

People just rush everywhere
It feels like people are running around without any sense of direction or purpose.

No time to ever take the time to care
People are so busy doing their own things they don't have the time or energy to care about others.

We're the ones, we're the losers in this game
People like us are at a disadvantage because of the way the world is structured.

So where is the tenderness we sacrifice for progress
In our pursuit of progress, we have forgotten the importance of being kind and compassionate.

And where is the love we need, you know it makes me wonder
I wonder where all the love in the world has gone and why we need it more than ever.

What if everybody, what if everybody reached out with just one hand? (Reached with just one hand)
What if everyone showed a little kindness and reached out to help each other with even just a small gesture?

What if everybody, what if everybody sang out with just one voice? (Sang with just one voice)
What if everyone took a stand and worked together to make a change with a single voice?

Maybe we could change things
Perhaps if we all came together, we can make a difference.

What if everybody, what if everybody cared with just one heart? (Cared with their own heart)
What if everyone started caring about each other and the world with a little bit of their heart?

What if everybody, what if everybody tried to light one spark? (Tried to light one spark)
What if each one of us took the initiative to make a small positive change, then maybe we could light a spark that ignites greater change.

Maybe we could change things somehow
If we all tried our best, maybe we could make a difference even if the path is unclear.

Somehow it's all up to us, gotta take this world
It's our responsibility to take charge and make the world a better place.

Make it a world of love, gotta do it now
We have to start now in creating a world full of love and compassion.

Gotta find a way to make a change somehow
We need to search for ways to make a change and not wait for others to do it for us.

There's gotta be a way for us to make it better
We cannot give up hope, as there has to be a solution to make the world a better place.

Here in our hearts, oh, the answer is there
The answer to making the world a better place lies within our hearts, and we need to look inward to find it.

If we only would look inside them
If only we would take the time to look inside our hearts, we'll find the solution.

We can make it better, we can make it better
We have the power to make a change and create a better world.

If we try together
We can only make a difference if we work together and towards a common goal.
