I saw an accident this morning on the interstate
And the first thing on my mind was running late
I didn't stop and pray that they were safe
Never thought about it after
When did I start missing the
Things that matter?

I saw a woman standing off exit eighty-five
With the same old jeans and a brand new cardboard sign
And I didn't row my window down
Didn't even smile at her
When did I start missing the
Things that matter?

Help me see the world
Through your eyes
Till what breaks your heart
Is breaking mine
Slow me down
This world is moving faster
But I don't wanna miss the
Things that matter

I got a thousand shouting voices in my head
'Cause I've heard a million more on the internet
Father, how can I discern your voice
From all of these distractions?
When did I start missing the
Things that matter

Help me see the world
Through your eyes
Till what breaks your heart
Is breaking mine
Slow me down
This world is moving faster
But I don't wanna miss the
Things that matter

Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh-oh

Help me see the world
Through your eyes
Till what breaks your heart
Is breaking mine
Slow me down
This world is moving faster
But I don't wanna miss the
Things that matter
I don't wanna miss the
Things that matter
