Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Clock in at seven
Coffee gone cold
Shelves full of clipboards
Stories in bold
Name tags on kennels
Dates in red ink
Try not to count them
Try not to think
[Chorus]
And they say
"You know you can't save them all"
I just nod
Eyes fixed on the wall
Whisper
"I know"
But I still show up
Still take that call
If I can't save them all
I'll save the ones who fall
Right here
Give those babies a chance at all
[Verse 2]
Old dog in corner
Scars on his face
Thumps his tail gently
When I say his name
Shy tortoiseshell kitten
Hides from my hand
Purrs in my sweatshirt
When she understands
[Chorus]
And they say
"You know you can't save them all"
I just nod
Eyes fixed on the wall
Whisper
"I know"
But I still show up
Still take that call
If I can't save them all
I'll save the ones who fall
Right here
Give those babies a chance at all
[Bridge]
Maybe it's foolish
Maybe it's small
But it changes a whole world
For the one who gets to crawl
Out of that cage
Into a car
Onto a couch
Into a heart (oh)
[Chorus]
'Cause you say
"You know you can't save them all"
I say
"I know" but hear my resolve
I still show up
I will still answer every call
If I can't save them all
I'll save the ones who crawl
Into my arms
Give those babies a chance at all
