Bryan Ferry Walk A Mile In My Shoes Lyrics

(South)

If I could be you
And you could be me
For just one hour
If we could find a way
To get inside each other's minds
If you could see you
Through my eyes
Instead of your ego
I believe you'd be
Surprised to see
That you'd been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse
Criticise and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

Now the whole world
You see around you
Is just a reflection
And the law of Karma
Says you reap
Just what you sow
So unless you've
Lived a life
Of total perfection
You'd better be careful
Of every stone
That you should throw

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse
Criticise and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

And yet we spend the day
Throwing stones
At one another
'Cause I don't think
Or wear my hair
The same way you do
Well I may be
Common people
But I'm your brother
And when you strike out
And try to hurt me
It's a-hurtin you

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you accuse
Criticise and abuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

There are people
On reservations
And out in the ghettos
And brother, there
But for the grace of God
Go you and I
If I only
Had the wings
Of a little angel
Don't you know I'd fly
To the top of the mountain
And then I'd cry

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse
Criticise and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk, walk

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse
Criticise and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk, walk

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk, walk
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk, walk
And before you abuse
Criticise and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
