Lyrics

?IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE?

VI
A LITTLE GIRL ON THE BEACH, PICKIN? STARFISH FROM THE SAND
ONE BY ONE THROWING THEM BACK IN TO THE SEA AGAIN
I SAID HONEY, WHATCHA DOING? SHE SAID JUST TRYING TO HELP
BUT I SAID THE STORM LEFT THOUSANDS, AND YOU?RE HERE BY YOURSELF
IT WON?T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE, NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY
BUT AS SHE GENTLY THREW THE NEXT ONE BACK, SHE LOOKED AT ME AND SMILED?

CHORUS
(SHE SAID) IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO THAT ONE
MAYBE I CAN?T HELP THEM ALL, BUT I CAN DO MY PART
SOMETHING RIGHT HERE TELLS ME THAT I SHOULD,
AS SHE POINTED TO HER HEART
(SHE SAID) IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO THAT ONE?

V2
I THOUGHT ABOUT A FRIEND, HOW I DIDN?T HAVE TIME TO TALK
THEN I HEARD ABOUT THE ACCIDENT, THAT HIS SON MAY NEVER WALK
AND THE OLD MAN DOWN THE STREET, JUST NEEDS SOME COMPANY
AND THAT SINGLE MOM WITH TWO SMALL KIDS, THAT LOST HER JOB LAST WEEK
A SMILE, A TOUCH, A CARING WORD, A FEW DOLLARS SOMEONE NEEDS
MAY NOT SEEM LIKE MUCH TO SOME, BUT LIKE THAT LITTLE GIRL SAID TO ME?

CHORUS
IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO THAT ONE
MAYBE I CAN?T HELP THEM ALL, BUT I CAN DO MY PART
SOMETHING RIGHT HERE TELLS ME THAT I SHOULD,
AS SHE POINTED TO HER HEART
(SHE SAID) IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO THAT ON?

TAG
OH___OH___,
IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO THAT ONE?
