Where were you when the world stopped turning that September day, Out in the yard with your wife and children Or workin on some stage in LA 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 who dont 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 And the heros 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
*Chorus*
Im just a singer of simple songs Im not a real political man I watch CNN but im not sure i can tell you The difference in Iraq and Iran I know Jesus and i talk to god And i remember this from when i 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 Driving dow 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 for the first time in ages Speak to some stranger on the street Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow Go out an buy you a gun Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watchin' And turn on 'I Love Lucy' re-runs Did you go to church and hold hands with some stangers Stand in line and give your own blood Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family Thank god you had somebody to love
*Chorus* *Chorus*
And the greatest is love
And the greatest is love
Where were you when the world stoped turning, that September day
