A thousand passersby just walk on
  His luxuries of life have been taken away
  I wish someone would stop me
  Every time that I complain
    Be grateful in every way
  Taken Away
  Don't you forget
  He would give anything
  Taken Away
  For a working body
    Don't throw your blesses away
    I've been given love, given family
  A warm clean bed for my head to lay
  So many people aren't so lucky
  Don't forget to give thanks and praise
    Be grateful in every way
  Taken Away
  He would give anything
  For a working body
  Taken Away
  A split second later
    Don't throw your blesses away
    Truly grateful for each and every day
  I get on my knees to give thanks and praise
  Go
    Budapest, Hungary 1991
  I met a boy names Janos
  Confined to a wheelchair with multiple sclerosis
  His own mobility based
  Solely on the movements of his chin
  But he had so much to teach me
  When I showed him some friendship
  When I stopped to talk
    He said it really hurts
  When people look right past you
  Like I'm not a human being with feelings
  Love and compassion sitting here
  Don't you dare feel sorry for me
  Just give me a chance
  His reality's cool
  His mind stays strong
  Hey I'm alive
    A thousand passersby just walk on
  His luxuries of life have been taken away
  I wish someone would stop me
  Every time that I complain
    Taken Away
  Don't you forget
  Taken Away
  He would give anything
  Taken Away
  For a working body
  Taken Away
  Don't throw your blesses away
  Taken Away
