Bad news, doctor's lookin' down, all the family's gathered 'round
She didn't make it
Cross town a relieving sigh, little girl's gonna be fine
Didn't even break it
It's kinda crazy how many ways, a life can change in a single day
[Chorus]
One laughs, one cries, and this ol' world keeps turnin' around
One lives, one dies and another page is written
All before the sun goes down
Young daddy in a foreign land, got his weapon in his hand
He's under fire
Back home daddy's little boy's playin' with an army toy
Wonder who he admires
Right there at that very same time each one is on the others mind
[Chorus]
A baby's born, an old man prays, someone falls, someone's saved
A heart'll break without a sound all before the sun goes down
It's kinda crazy how many ways, a life can change in a single day
[Chorus]
