Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning) Lyrics - Enrique Iglesias

1 Where were you when the world stopped turning on that September day

2 Out in the yard with your wife and children

3 Working on some stage in LA

4 Did you stand there in shock at the site of that black smoke

5 Rising against that blue sky

6 Did you shout out in anger

7 In fear for your neighbor

8 Or did you just sit down and cry

9 Did you weep for the children

10 Who lost their dear loved ones

11 And pray for the ones who don't know

12 Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble

13 And sob for the ones left below

14 Did you burst out in pride

15 For the red, white, and blue

16 The heroes who died just doing what they do

17 Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer

18 And look at yourself and what really matters

19 I'm just a singer of simple songs

20 I'm not a real political man

21 I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you

22 The difference in Iraq and Iran

23 But I know Jesus and I talk to God

24 And I remember this from when I was young

25 Faith, hope, and love are some good things he gave us

26 And the greatest is love

27 Where were you when the world stopped turning on that September day

28 Teaching a class full of innocent children

29 Driving down some cold interstate

30 Did you feel guilty 'cause you're a survivor

31 In a crowded room did you feel alone

32 Did you call up your mother and tell her you loved her

33 Did you dust off that bible at home

34 Did you open your eyes and hope it never happened

35 Close your eyes and not go to sleep

36 Did you notice the sunset the first time in ages

37 Speak with some stranger on the street

38 Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow

39 Go out and buy you a gun

40 Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watching

41 And turn on "I Love Lucy" reruns

42 Did you go to a church and hold hands with some stranger

43 Stand in line and give your own blood

44 Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family

45 Thank God you had somebody to love

46 I'm just a singer of simple songs

47 I'm not a real political man

48 I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you

49 The difference in Iraq and Iran

50 But I know Jesus and I talk to God

51 And I remember this from when I was young

52 Faith, hope, and love are some good things he gave us

53 And the greatest is love

54 I'm just a singer of simple songs

55 I'm not a real political man

56 I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you

57 The difference in Iraq and Iran

58 But I know Jesus and I talk to God

59 And I remember this from when I was young

60 Faith, hope, and love are some good things he gave us

61 And the greatest is love

62 The greatest is love

63 The greatest is love

64 Where were you when the world stopped turning on that September day
