In my dreams 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 (why) does it have to be like this
tell me why (why) is there something i have missed
Tell me why (why) coz i dont understand why so
many need sombody we dont 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 on 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) coz i dont understand why so many need somebody we dont 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

Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why (why) is there something i have missed
Tell me why coz i dont understand when so many need somebody we dont 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 me why we let the forset 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 dolphins cry)
Can someone tell me 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 rain)
Can someone tell me why we just cant be friends
Why why

(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?
