lyrics

I got you on my mind while everything else is fading
But they donʼt understand that kind of lovinʼ
I needed kisses in the morning during the cold, cold winter
And you were right there by my side
Sometimes when it seems that the world around
Donʼt make no sense
You sit me right down and break it on down
You say “Lee, look it here”
“Sometimes fools is just gonna be fools, baby”
So I nod my head and give a grin
Can you pass me the syrup?
It ainʼt as sweet as you, but itʼll do
I Þ nish reading the morning paper
See the troubles in the world
See peace in your eyes/ Happiness in your spirit
And remember that I know God
And that all is well/ Just swell
I just wish that/ Hope that/ Dream that/ One day that...
Well..
Chorus
Everything will be all right
One day the world will turn upside down
Right side up and we gonna get it right
I just wish that/ Hope that/ One day that...
Sometimes I try to understand
When things just donʼt seem to uh make sense to me
People in the this life live day to day without a sense of
Uh...connectivity
It seems so hard to have us sympathize
Maybe words like this ainʼt in our vocabulary
I just wish that/ Hope that
Dream that/ One day that maybe....Well..
Now we elect the elite/ Theyʼre not connected to the streets
They livinʼ in their sheltered lives with their Stepford Wives
How in the world do I expect you to care about
Change in my city?
You never ever travel down there
The closest that you come is the arena
Just to watch them fellas play ball/ Well, shame on you all
If you rebuild the inner cities youʼre rebuilding lives
And with that you change the world
Chorus
