How in this world can we put a man on the moon |
|
And still have a need for a place like St Jude's? |
|
And why is one man born |
|
In a place where all they know is war? |
|
And a guy like me has always been free |
|
And how can two people who built a loving home |
|
Try for years an' never have a child of their own? |
|
When somewhere out there tonight |
|
There's a baby no-one's holding tight |
|
In need of love to me, that don't add up |
|
But I wasn't there the day you filled up the oceans |
|
I didn't get to see you hang the stars in the sky |
|
So, I don't mean to second guess you |
|
Or criticize what I don't understand |
|
And these are just a few questions I have |
|
And why did my cousin have to die in that crash? |
|
A good kid, only seventeen, I still wonder 'bout that |
|
It seems unfair to me |
|
Some get the chance to chase their dreams |
|
And some don't but what do I know? |
|
I wasn't there the day you filled up the oceans |
|
I didn't get to see you hang the stars in the sky |
|
So, I don't mean to second guess you |
|
Or criticize what I don't understand |
|
And these are just a few questions I have |
|
Why do I feel like you hear these prayers of mine |
|
When so many oughta be ahead of me in line? |
|
When you look down on me |
|
Can you see the good through all the bad? |
|
And these just a few questions I have |
