Don’t ask me why - -
flowers grow,
steams run downhill,
birds need to fly.

Don’t ask me why - -
we sing a song,
dance by the fire,
And need each other.

Don’t tell me why - -
we build bombs,
enslave our children,
train our soldiers.

Don’t tell me why - -
you get angry
when I say
We need the Change…

I don’t want to know,
I don’t want to hear
About the tears you sow
About the heart you don’t show,
About the power you won’t let go.

Don’t ask me why flowers grow,
Don’t ask me why we need each other without end.

If ever I heard a flower sing
I would know it as my heart.

If ever I heard a tree talk
I would know it as my soul.

If ever I heard the ocean ring
I would know the world without end
