Why Songtext
von Sanchez

Sitting here reading the book of life
Constantly asking myself why
Why do babies have to die
And the mother, oh no, gives up her pride?
Can′t you see the man on the street?
Doesn't even have enough to eat
Tell me when you′re walking by
Can you see the tears in his eyes?
Somebody please tell me why

Why, why does this world seem so cold?
It's like a rich man won't give a pot of gold
Why, before my life comes to an end
Just trying to make amends
And let′s give it a chance
Tell me why
Tell me why


Baby don′t know her father's name
Mother′s confused just the same
Saying that it's alright
But she need a father in her life
Somebody please tell me why
Just like the sand on the beach
Just like the ocean runs so deep
We all must play a part
Digging deep in our hearts
But I don′t know where to start

Why, why does this world seem so cold?
It's like a rich man won′t give a pot of gold
And why, before my life comes to an end
Just trying to make amends
And let's give it a chance
Oh, tell me why
Oh, tell me why

Why do things go the way they do?
Everybody, I'm asking you
Turn around, turn around, turn around
Things don′t have to be this way
Looking for a better day
Turn around, turn around, turn around

Why do things go the way they do?
Everybody, I′m asking you

Turn around, turn around, turn around
Things don't have to be this way
Looking for a better day

Turn around, turn around, turn around


Why do things go the way they do?
Everybody, I′m asking you
Turn around, turn around, turn around
Things don't have to be this way
Looking for a better day
Turn around, turn around, turn around

Why do things go the way they do?
Everybody, I′m asking you
Turn around, turn around, turn around
Things don't have to be this way
Looking for a better day
Turn around, turn around, turn around
