Big Enough To Care

© 2013 Mark Cote

climbed your way high up on the ladder
is the view from there all that matters
can you reach way on down
down to the ground
are you big enough
big enough to care

it's a jungle of life we live in
forgettin' sometimes where we've been
we kick claw and bite
though we know it's not right
are you big enough to care

(chorus) with the world under your ground
                  cry tears without a sound
                  are you big enough
                  are you big enough to care
                  when one opens their eyes
                  one by one the world is wise
                  and we're big enough
                  big enough to care

a battle of words and of money
the double talk it ain't funny
the fool on the hill
says he never will
be strong enough to care

he showed her the love he knew
with feelings so deeply true
but she saw through her fear
true love in unclear
heart not big enough to care

(chorus)
