Sitting alone on the side of the road
With dirt on his face, with clothes old and worn
Wondering how life turned out this way
Begging for change, day after day
Does someone somewhere care?
Locking her door on the south side of town
She trembles inside, hopes he can't find her now
Wondering how life turned out this way
Living in fear day after day
Does someone somewhere care?

Have I met them today?
Did I love through the pain?
Did I show them the light
Of the way, truth, and life?
Does the truth that I claim
Live in me day by day?
Am I somebody's someone somewhere?
Am I somebody's someone somewhere?

Lying awake in the middle of the night
The tears on her cheeks say she's so empty inside
Wondering how life turned out this way
Nothing to gain, day after day
Pick any person standing nearby
Everything about them says life is alright
But secrets abound when you look in their eyes
I pray that you and I don't pass them by
