Why

From the Stars above and the Clouds of high
If all else fails, never wonder why
Why things happen to give us pain
Why should we ever have to worry again

Why is there Death so close to our hearts
When all we ever want is to never be apart
There comes a time when we have to believe
Believe in our Hearts that we will recieve

Why do things happen that we can't explain
Try telling a child, again and again
If all else fails, never wonder why
Those tears of sorrow will one day 
Say Good-Bye.
