| Why do we live this life of frustration?
|
| Why can’t this world unite as one nation?
|
| We could do it too, if we wanted to — and live as brothers
|
| All we’d have to do is to love.
|
| Why do we have to fight one another?
|
| Why do we have to destroy each other?
|
| We don’t have to do what we don’t want to do — lets stop the killing
|
| Let peace be victor over pain.
|
| Why don’t you see the light of salvation?
|
| Why don’t you see the joy and elation?
|
| You could see it too if you wanted to — it’s the light of Jesus
|
| For when I found Him, I found the way…
|
| You could find it too if you wanted to
|
| They ask me, «why do you write such sad songs», and I answer «it's the only
|
| way I have of showing the pain, the hate, the suffering and the sorrow of this
|
| world, and how easy it would be to change it if we would only dare to try
|
| You could find it too if you wanted to (X8) |
