WHERE WERE YOU
Where were you
When the world
Stopped turning

That September day
When the world
Stopped turning

That September day
Out in the yard
With your wife and children

Or workin' on some stage
In L A
Did you stand there in shock
At the sight of that black smoke

Risin' against
That blue sky
Did you shout out in anger
And fear for your neighbor

Or did you just

Sit down and cry
Did you weep for the children

Who lost their dear loved ones
Pray for the ones

You don't know
Did you rejoice for the people

Who walked from the rubble
And sob for the ones
Left below
Did you burst out in pride

For the red white and blue
The heroes who died

Just doin' what they do
Did you look up to Heaven
For some kind of answer

And look at yourself

And what really matters
I'm just a singer of simple songs

I'm not a real political man

lwatch CNN but I'm not sure

I can tell you
But I know Jesus
And I talk to God

And I remember this

From when l was young
Faith hope and love

Are some good things

He gave us

And the greatest is love
Where were you
When the world
Stopped turning

That September day
Teachin' a class
Full of innocent children

Drivin' down

Some cold interstate
Did you feel guilty

'Cause you're a survivor
In a crowded room

Did you feel alone
Did you call up your mother

And tell her you love her
Did you dust off
That Bible at home
Did you open your eyes

And hope it never happened

Close your eyes

And not go to sleep
Did you notice the sunset

The first time in ages

Speak to some stranger
On the street
Did you
Lay down at night

And think of tomorrow

Go out and buy you a gun
Did you turn off that violent
Home movie you're watchin'

And turn on

I love Lucy reruns
Did you go to a Church and

Hold hands with some stranger

Stand in line

And give your own blood
Did you just stay home

And cling tied to your family

Thank God you had

Somebody to love
I'm just a singer of simple songs

I'm not a real political man

lwatch CNN but I'm not sure

I can tell you
But I know Jesus
And I talk to God

And I remember this

From when l was young
Faith hope and love

Are some good things

He gave us

And the greatest is love
I'm just a singer of simple songs

I'm not a real political man

lwatch CNN but I'm not sure

I can tell you
But I know Jesus
And I talk to God

And I remember this

From when l was young
Faith hope and love

Are some good things

He gave us

And the greatest is love
The greatest is love

The greatest is love
Where were you
When the world
Stopped turning

That September day
