Verse 1

 Oh picture it a little girl just a beautiful eight year old

Trying to live through this life in a crazy world

Years past and one bad move

 She finds herself as a teen and her life in ruins

What could have happened if we stopped and took the time

Showed that girl she had meaning and a purpose to life

Maybe avoid that downward slide

 Would you tell her the truth?

Or let her live in a lie?

Pre-chorus

 It all just seems to change

 When you see it as a life to save

Chorus

 So would you save a life, save a life?

If it was do or die

 Would you save a soul, save a soul?

Even if its not your own?

If you're the hands and the arms that reach

 Would you save a life from drowning?

Verse 2

Would you cry out if it was the moment of truth?

Would you reach out if there was something to lose?

Life or death would you take a deep breath

And dive in a save a life that needs to be rescued?

We'd prevent it if we just explained

About the tides and the undertows and deadly waves

We could save a life before it needs to be saved

Why wait for tomorrow we can start today

Pre-chorus

It all just seems to change

When you see it as a life to save

Chorus

So would you save a life, save a life?

If it was do or die

Would you save a soul, save a soul?

Even if it's not your own

If you're the hands and the arms that reach

Would you save a life from drowning?
