In my dreams, Children sing A song of love for every boy and girl The sky is blue, the fields are green And laughter is the language of the world Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need
Tell me why,(why) does it have to be like this Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand When so many need somebody We don't give a helping hand Tell me why
Every day, I ask myself what will I have to do to be a man Do I have, to stand and fight To prove to everybody who I am Is that what my life is for? To waste in a world full of war
Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed Tell me why,(why) cause I don't understand When so many needs somebody We don't give a helping hand Tell me why (Tell me why) Tell me why (Tell me why) Tell me why (Tell me why) Just tell me why (why, why, why)
Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand When so many need somebody We don't give a helping hand Tell me why (Why why, does the tigers run?) Tell me why (Why why, do we shoot the gun?) Tell me why (Why why, do we never learn?) Can someone tell us why we let the forests burn
(why why do we say we can?) tell me why (why why is it still the same?) tell me why (why why do we talk and run?) tell me why can someone tell us why we let the ocean die
(why why do we always say?) tell me why (why why do we pass the blame?) tell me why (why why does it never rain?) can someone tell us why we cannot just be friends
(why why do we close our eyes?) (why why do we really lie?) (why why do we fight for land?) can someone tell us why cause we don't understand why why?
