Trapped in simple conversation
Hard getting past those old familiar lines
Guarded hearts and with good reason
Say how are you, oh I'm doin' just fine;
They've said all that they can say
Then they turn and walk away
And the wounded hearts must wait another day
Who cares when they're crying;
Who cares when they're all alone
And no one knows how much they long
To find someone
Who cares that they're dying
Who cares that the road is long
And you could be the one to lead them
To the One who cares
Captured by the rush of living
So hard to hear our brothers' quiet cries
But freedom comes when we are willing
To open up our hearts and realize
They've said all that they can say;
We can't turn and walk away
'Cause the wounded hearts might not wait another day
Who cares when they're crying;
Who cares when they're all alone
And no one knows how much they long
To find someone
Who cares that they're dying
Who cares that the road is long
And you could be the one to lead them
To the One who cares
The Father gave His Son
To show the world how much He cares
And now it's up to us to let them know
He cares
Who cares when they're crying;
Who cares when they're all alone
And no one knows how much they long
To find someone
Who cares that they're dying
Who cares that the road is long
And you could be the one to lead them
To the One who cares
