Lying out on the street, there's a man 
That needs somewhere to sleep 
And a bag-lady digs, through the trash 
Hoping to find some food to eat 

In the cold winter's snow, walks a boy 
That needs shoes for his feet 
In an old run-down house, there's a child 
In a crib that needs some heat 

In the dark of the night, a young man 
Searches for a guiding light 
And a young woman cries in despair 
'Cause she feels alone in life 

You might ask yourself, "What in the hell 
Does that have to do with me?" 
Well, here is your wake up call, "Everything!" 
'Cause we all play a part in each other's existence 

Take the time out to love someone 
Reach your arms out and hug someone 
Be it a king or some homeless one 
We are one underneath the sun 

Take the time out to be right there 
Take the time out to show you care 
You'll be so glad when the day is done 
You took the time out to love someone 

There's a man in a house where they're selling crack 
Yet he's trying to be strong 
But when lost in the sea, of no hope 
You must be saved from wrong 

Don't say what you won't do, if for days 
You had no food to eat 
Nor extremes you won't go, for a bed, shoes 
Or if your baby needed heat 
You do not have the right to pre-judge 
If you don't share your strength 
And you can't say you're down for the fight 
If you won't go the length 
Now I don't really care what you feel 
If you don't feel for life 
And don't care what you think if your words 
Don't have ways and actions that perpetuate life 

Take the time out to love someone 
Reach your arms out and hug someone 
Be it a king or some homeless one 
We are one underneath the sun (take your time)

Take the time out to be right there (take your time)
Take the time out to show you care 
You'll be so glad when the day is done 
You took the time out to love someone 

I think it's time to

Take the time out to love someone 
Reach your arms out and hug someone 
Be it a king or some homeless one 
We are one underneath the sun, yeah

Take the time out to be right there 
Take the time out to show you care 
You'll be so glad when the day is done 
You took the time out to love someone

(Take the time)
Take the time out to love someone 
(Reach your arms)
Reach your arms out and hug someone 
(Be it)
Be it a king or some homeless one 
We, we are one underneath the sun

Oh, take the time out to be right there 
(Oh, be right there)
Take the time out to show you care 
You'll be so glad when the day is done, yeah
You took the time out to love someone

Take the time out
Take the time out to love someone
Take the time out
Reach your arms out
Reach your arms out and hug someone 
C'mon, someone, yeah
