Lyrics
In my dream, children sing,
a song of love for every boy and girl.
The sky is blue, and 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, does it have to be like this?
Tell me why, is there something I have missed?
Tell me why, 'cause I don't understand,
when so many need somebody,
we don't give a helping hand?
Tell me why?
Everyday, 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 this what my life is for,
to waste in a world full of war?
Tell me why, does it have to be like this?
Tell me why, is there something I have missed?
Tell me why, 'cause I don't understand,
when so many need somebody,
we don't give a helping hand?
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?
Just tell me why?
Tell me why, does it have to be like this?
Tell me why, is there something I have missed?
Tell me 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 tiger 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 forest burn?
(Why, why do we say we care?)
Tell me why?
(Why, why do we stand and stare?)
Tell me why?
(Why, why do the dolphin cry?)
Can someone tell us why we let the ocean die?
(Why, why if were all the same?)
Tell me why?
(Why, why do we pass the blame?)
Tell me why?
(Why why does it never end?)
Can someone tell us why we cannot just be friends?
Why, why (do we close our eyes)
Why, why (do the greedy lie)
Why, why (do we fight for land)
Can someone tell us why cos we don't understand?
Why, why?
