Letra Tell Me Why de Genesis original
Mothers crying in the street Children dying at their feet, tell me why, ooh tell me why People starving everywhere Theres too much food but theres none to spare, Tell me why, oh tell me why Can you see that shaft of sunlight Can you see it in my eyes I can feel the fire thats burning Anger and hope so deep So deep within my heart but before my eyes For some its too late Cos it seems theres no-one listening People sleeping in the streets No roof above, no food to eat, tell me why, oh tell me why See the questions in their eyes Listen to their childrens cries, Tell me why, please tell me why If theres a god, is he watching Can he give a ray of hope So much pain and so much sorrow Tell me what does he see When he looks at you When he looks at me What would he say Cos it seems theres no-one listening Who would think it still could happen Even in this time and place Politicians, they may save themselves Ah but they wont save their face So hope against hope its not too late You say theres nothing you can do Is there one rule for them and one for you, Tell me why, just tell my why Listen can you see that shaft of sunlight Can you see it in my eyes I can feel the fire thats burning Anger and hope so deep So deep within my heart but before my eyes For some its too late And it seems theres no-one listening Hurry for me, hurry for me Hurry for me, hurry for me, they cry, they cry...
