Talk is cheap in times like this
Children die mothers cry
You and I talking about the way it is
All around see the signs
To my shame I just play the caring game
Talking about the way it is
Chorus
Gonna need some courage to practise what I preach
Gonna need some love to carry it over
If I didn't have words would I be what I say I believe
Don't just keep talking about it
Don't just keep talking about the way it is
Don't just keep talking about it
Don't just keep talking about the way it is
I'm saying more and doing less
I criticise analyse I'm paralysed
Talking about the way it is
And the feelings gone now
Funny how my heart is much harder now
Talking about the way it is
Chorus
Bridge

There're a thousand reasons why we do it
Each one might steal a fate

Chorus

You and I we've gotta do some thing
You and I we've gotta do some thing
You and I we've gotta do some thing
You and I we've gotta do some thing
Everybody's gotta do something
Something 'bout the way we it is
