Why Lyrics - My Thoughts - Avant

I'm sitting here reading the book of life 

Constantly asking myself why 

Why do babies have to die 

And a mother, oh, no gives up a price 

Can you see the man on the streets 

He doesn't even have enough to eat 

Tell me when your walking by 

Can you see the tears in his eye 

Somebody please tell me why 

Why, why does this world seem so cold 

Just like a rich man that won't give a pot a gold 

Oh no, why before my life comes to an end 

Let's try to make amends and let's give it a chance 

Tell me why, tell me why 

Tell me why, tell me why 

Baby don't know her fathers name 

The mother's confused just the same 

She's saying that it's alright 

But she needs a father in her life 

Somebody please tell me why 

And just like the sand on the beach 

And just like the ocean runs so deep 

We all must take our part and dig deep in our heart 

But I don't know where to start 

Someone tell me why 

Why does this world seem so cold 

Just like a rich man that won't give a pot of gold 

Oh no, why before my life comes to an end 

Let's try to make amends and let's give it a chance 

Oh, tell me why, tell me why 

Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why 

Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why 

I gotta know tell me why 

Why do things go the way they do 

Everybody, I'm asking you 

Can we turn around, turn around, turn around 

Things don't have to be this way 

Looking for a better day 

Can we turn around, turn around, turn around 

Why do things go the way they do 

Everybody, I'm asking you 

Can we turn around, turn around, turn around 

Things don't have to be this way 

Looking for a better day 

Can we turn around, turn around, turn around 

Why do things go the way they do 

Everybody, I'm asking you 

Can we turn around, turn around, turn around 

Things don't have to be this way 

Looking for a better day 

Can we turn around, turn around, turn around 

Why do things go the way they do 

Everybody, I'm asking you 

Can we turn around, turn around, turn around
