If Nobody Cared
If nobody cared
just a little for you,
And nobody thought
about me,
And we all stood
alone in the battle of life,
What a dreary
old world it would be.
Life is sweet
because of friends we have made,
And the things
in common we share;
We want to live
on, not because of ourselves,
But because of
the people who care.
It's giving and
doing for somebody else-
On that all life's
splendor depends;
The joy of the
world, when you sum it all up,
If found in the
making of friends.
