Mothers crying in the street
Children dying at their feet
Tell me why, ooh 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
And for some it's too late

Cos it seems there's no-one listening
People sleeping in the streets
No roof above, no food to eat

Tell me why, oh 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,ishe 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
Cos 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

Ah 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, just 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
.

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
.
