I Wonder Why Lyrics by Alan Frew

Hold On

0

I stood beneath God's sheltering sky
I called out His name, raised up my hands
And asked the question why
Why do we hope?
Why do we bleed?
Why do we die?
Why do we need to be loved?
Why do we need to be loved?
If there's a light that never shines on you
If there's a heart that never longs for you
Always remember, when you look in my eyes
There's a time to live, and a time to die
And a time to wonder why
When I see rain, I see Eden cry
Mother of love, Sister of shame
Can you hear me asking why?
Why do we hurt?
Why do we hate?
Why do we lie?
Why did we break your heart?
Why did we break your heart?
If there's a light that never shines on you
If there's a heart that never longs for you
Always remember, when you look in my eyes
There's a time to live, and a time to die
And a time to wonder why
And I wonder why
I wonder why
If there's a light that never shines on you
If there's a heart that never longs for you
Always remember, when you look in my eyes
And there's a time to live, and a time to die
And a time to wonder why
And I wonder why
Oh, I wonder why
(I wonder why, I wonder why)
Mother, don't cry
Father, don't cry
Little sister, don't cry
I wonder why
(I wonder why, I wonder why...)
