What would they find if they uncovered all of my tracks •
Of roads I’d snuck down and darkness and never turn back
• Well they’d find what they’re looking for • Secrets and so
much more •• What would they find if they searched for a
heart of gold • They’d find sacrifices of time and of money
never told • Yeah they’d find what they’re looking for •
Kindness and so much more
Cause there’s so much good in the worst of us • So much
bad in the best of us • It never makes sense for any of
us • To criticize the rest of us • We’ll just find what we’re
looking for • We’ll find it and so much more
What would I find if I turned back the time on your
face • Could I piece together the memories that have
made you this way • I might find what I’m looking for •
Understanding and so much more •• Haven’t we all learned
the best life lessons • By falling, and falling down hard • If
we’re looking for somebody’s failures • We won’t have to
look very far

Behind the Song:“The inspiration for this song came from Mary Elizabeth Chapman, grandmother
of my three older children, Matt, Millie and Sarah. She was full of homespun
wisdom, and spoke these words to me often. ‘There’s a little good in the worst of us,
and a little bad in the best of us, so it never behooves any of us to criticize the rest of
us.’ (Always said with a smile.) I built the song around it to remember her.” - Amy Grant
