Why, Tell Me Why

Wendy Van Wanten


When I was young I felt the need of learning
Love, I was told, kept the wheel on turning
Still, I'm trying to find peace of mind inside
Once in your live you feel the urge of knowing and wondering why

Come on people, I accused of sins 
Our time is running out, there ain't no doubt about
We can make it, try to rearrange it
If there's a price, we have to toss the dice

Somebody tell me now
Believe it, destiny 
Believe it, humanity 
Believe it, we'll meet again 
Somehow, somewhere, someday

Why, tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why do I pray
I need to know right now

Why, tell me why, 
Tell me why 
Tell me why do I pray 
I hope this freedom soon become our way

Come on people, let a helping hand
No need to foss and fight
We all know where we stand

Help me make it
Try to rearrange it 
Name your price 
And I will toss the dice

Somebody tell me now
Believe it, destiny 
Believe it, humanity 
Believe it, we'll meet again 
Somehow, somewhere, someday

Why, tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why do I pray
I need to know right now

Why, tell me why, 
Tell me why 
Tell me why do I pray 
I hope this freedom soon become our way
