Let the Whole Wide World Come

[Verse 1]
You meet the morning with your shoulders set
A thousand little worlds you haven’t met
The baker laughs, the bus rolls by
A stranger lifts a hand; you catch their eye

[Pre-Chorus]
We’re not as far apart as we pretend
A little care can travel, bend, and send

[Chorus]
Open up, let the whole wide world come through
Give a little kindness; it comes back to you
Every face has a life you can’t see
Love is how we let each other be
Open up, let the whole wide world come through

[Verse 2]
A neighbor’s dog goes racing down the block
Two kids trade jokes beside the corner shop
The rain begins; one umbrella swings
And suddenly the street feels less like strangers

[Pre-Chorus]
We’re not as far apart as we pretend
A little care can travel, bend, and send

[Chorus]
Open up, let the whole wide world come through
Give a little kindness; it comes back to you
Every face has a life you can’t see
Love is how we let each other be
Open up, let the whole wide world come through

[Bridge]
You don’t have to fix it all today
Just see the person standing in your way
One honest smile, one patient minute
The world gets wider when we put love in it

[Final Chorus]
Open up, let the whole wide world come through
Give a little kindness; it comes back to you
Every face has a life you can’t see
Love is how we let each other be
Open up, let the whole wide world come through
[Outro]
Open up—let the whole wide world come through
