Shovels & Rope - Save The World lyrics

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 courtesy of the ole' NYPD you got what it takes you got what it takes to save the world
