Tell Me Why Genesis

[Verse 1]
Mothers crying in the street
Children dying at their feet
Tell me why
Ooh, tell me why
People starving everywhere
There's too much food but none to spare
Tell me why
Oh, tell me why

[Chorus 1]
Can you see that shaft of sunlight?
Can you see it in my eyes?
I can feel the fire that's burning
Anger and hope so deep
So deep within my heart
Before my eyes
For some it seems to late
It seems there's no one listening

[Verse 2]
People sleeping in the streets
No roof above no food to eat
Tell me why
Tell me why
See the questions in their eyes
Listen to their children's cries
Tell me why
Please tell me why
