Save The World - Shovels & Rope

When you’re caught in the wave

of a terrible tide

suddenly you’re struggling

to stay astride

so you calm your hands

and you cool your mind

and you wake up happy

on the other side

you got what it takes

you got what it takes

to save the world

when there is a trouble

you can not command

maybe it’s God trying

to guide your hand

to shine a little light

upon where you stand

so that you can genuinely

understand

that you got what it takes

you got what it takes

to save the world

miracles happen

they happen every day

we don’t know why

I guess we’re just lucky that way

a homeless man

with no place to sleep

woke up to find

warm boots on his feet

and a warm cup of coffee

with sugar and cream

you got what it takes

you got what it takes

to save the world
