Cracked Rear View

Tomorrow used to be a day away 
Now love is gone and you're into someone far away. 
I never thought the day would come 
When I would see his hand, not mine, 
holding onto yours because I could not find the time. 
Now I can't deny 
nothing lasts forever 
I don't want to leave 
and I see the tear drops in your eyes 
I don't want to live to see the day we say goodbye 
Now there comes another part of life that I call alone 
sitting at a bar with Chris 
and I can't leave

Trouble with the world is we're too busy to think about it, all right 
Why is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls? 
Tired of hearin' this shit about heritage not hate 
Time to make the world a better place 
Why must we hate one another? 
Well no matter what we gotta live together 
Just that you don't look like me, tell me what do you see 
When we pass on the street what do you wanna see 
P.E.'s coming is all I gotta say 
Wanna turn and run away 
They're just telling you how they see it 
Right or wrong they don't care, you wish that they would quit 
chorus: 
Drowning in a sea of tears 
Hatred trying to hide your fears 
Living only for yourself 
Hating everybody else 
Cause they don't look like you 
Nanci singing it's a hard life wherever you go 
About some fat racist living in Chicago 
Trying to teach his kids to hate everyone 
Well tell me why is that something you wanna teach your son? 
Why must we hate one another? 
When the people in the church, they tell me you're my brother 
You don't walk like me, ... you don't talk like me, saying 
Go back to Africa, I just don't understand 
(chorus) 
I'm trying to be someone that he could look up to, but 
When I walk down the street, tell me what do you see 
I'm a man, I'm a man, I'm a man 
No I'm not like you 
Why do you hate me so 
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know 
Hating everybody else cause they don't look like you

She sits alone by a lamppost 
trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind 
She says Dad's the one I love the most 
but Stipe's not far behind 
She lets me in 
only tell me where's she's been 
when she's had too much to drink 
I say that I don't care I just run my hands 
through her dark hair and I pray to God 
you gotta help me fly away 
And just

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth 
Come on try and tell me what you're talkin about 
Those things you're dealing with, you're living a lie 
Every time I see you it makes me wanna cry 
Sometimes we'd laugh and talk, seems like yesterday 
Then you let the white horse come and take you away 
They came to get you, it was cold and black 
The wheels were in motion, there was no turning back 
Chorus: 
Running from and angel, runnin to the devil 
I looked up to you a long time ago 
But there's something I want you to know 
Your lying and cheating really tore us apart 
Please don't come home if you're gonna break my momma's heart 
Chorus 
Ad lib (over solo section) 
Chorus 
Ad lib (over outro)

With a little love, and some tenderness 
We'll walk upon the water 
We'll rise above this mess 
With a little peace, and some harmony 
We'll take the world together 
We'll take 'em by the hand 
'Cause I've got a hand for you 
'Cause I wanna run with you 
Yesterday, I saw you standing there 
Your head was down, your eyes were red 
No comb had touched your hair 
I said get up, and let me see you smile 
We'll take a walk together 
Walk the road awhile, 'cause 
'Cause I've got a hand for you 
I've got a hand for you 
'Cause I wanna run with you 
Won't you let me run with you? yeah 
Hold my hand 
Want you to hold my hand 
Hold my hand 
I'll take you to a place where you can be 
Hold my hand 
Anything you wanna be because 
I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can 
See I was wasted, and I was wasting time 
'Till I thought about your problems, I thought about your crimes 
Then I stood up, and then I screamed aloud 
I don't wanna be part of your problems 
Don't wanna be part of your crowd, no 
'Cause I've got a hand for you 
I've got a hand for you 
'Cause I wanna run with you 
Ah, won't you let me run with you? 
Hold my hand 
Want you to hold my hand 
Hold my hand 
I'll take you to the promised land 
Hold my hand 
Maybe we can't change the world but 
I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can, yeah 
Hold my hand 
Want you to hold my hand 
Hold my hand 
I'll take you to a place where you can be 
Hold my hand 
Anything you wanna be because 
I...Oh...No, No, No, No, No 
Hold my hand 
Want you to hold my hand 
Hold my hand 
I'll take you to the promised land 
Hold my hand 
Maybe we can't change the world but 
I wanna love you the best that, best that I can 
Oh, The best that I can
