numbers time

Jason Reeves

Four people dreaming
Ten thousand drowning
Six billion searching
Five of them knowing
Nine million crashing
Two angels flying

It ain t in the numbers
It ain t in the time

Three million orphans
Twelve thousand mansions
Four nuns believing
Five million begging
Two doctors trying
Six thousand waiting

It ain t in the numbers
It ain t in the time

Does it really matter where you are?
Round every corner is a broken heart
You can save a helpless, starving town
With a couple of pennies that you found

It ain t in the numbers
It ain t in the time

Four mothers hoping
Eighteen bombs falling
Three children laughing
Two billion dying
One person praying
Could probably save them

It ain t in the numbers
It ain t in the time
