  • Reach out and touch
    Somebody's hand
    Make this world a better place
    If you can
    Reach out and touch
    Somebody's hand
    Make this world a better place
    If you can

    (Just try)
    Take a little time out your busy day
    To give encouragement
    To someone who's lost the way
    (Just try)
    Or would I be talking to a stone
    If I asked you
    To share a problem that's not your own
    (Oh no)
    We can change things if we start giving
    Why don't you

    Reach out and touch
    Somebody's hand
    Make this world a better place
    If you can
    Reach out and touch
    Somebody's hand
    Make this world a better place
    If you can

    (Just try)
    If you see an old friend on the street
    And he's down
    Remember his shoes could fit your feet
    (Just try)
    Try a little kindness and you'll see
    It's something that comes
    Very naturally
    (Oh yeah)
    We can change things if we start giving

    Why don't you
    (Why don't you)
    Reach out and touch
    Somebody's hand

    Reach out and touch (reach out)
    Somebody's hand
    Make this world a better place
    If you can
    Reach out and touch
    Somebody's hand (touch somebody's hand)
    Make this world a better place
    If you can (why don't you)

    Reach out and touch
    Somebody's hand (somebody's hand)
    Make this world a better place
    If you can Writer/s: Nickolas Ashford, Valerie Simpson
