Testo Tell Me Why - Genesis
Testo della canzone Tell Me Why (Genesis), tratta dall'album We Can't Dance
Mothers crying in the street
Children dying at their feet
Tell me why, oo
Tell me why
People starving everywhere
There's too much food but there's 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 that's burning
Anger and hope so deep
So deep within my heart
But before my eyes
Or for some it's too late
'Cause it seems there's no one listening
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
If there's 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?
'Cause it seems there's no one listening
Who would think it still could happen
Even in this time and place?
Politicians, they may save themselves
Oh, but they won't save their face
So hope against hope
It's not too late
You say there's nothing you can do
Is there one rule for them and one for you?
Tell me why (tell me why)
Just tell me why (tell me why)
Listen, 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
But before my eyes
For some it's too late
And it seems there's no one listening
Hurry for me, hurry for me
Hurry for me, hurry for me, they cry
They cry, ooh
Hurry for me, hurry for me
Hurry for me, hurry for me, they cry
They cry
Hurry for me, hurry for me
Hurry for me, hurry for me, they cry
They cry
