Lyrics

(*) Sometimes it seems that way to me
It's easier to love, don't you see

(* repeat)

Won't somebody please explain
Why all the hurt and the pain?
Can't you make'em see
It's not supposed to be
All this beautiful land
See the children playing in the sand
I put to you this question
What you at tolerate destruction?
And I don't understand why

(* repeat 3 times)

What more can I say

War is this game to play
Give a person a little might
Well that don't make him right
And I hope and pray
Oh please let the children play
All this killing each other
You should be loving your brother
And I don't understand why

(* repeat 3 times)

Let me hear you say:

(I do) I love you (repeat 7 times ad lib)

And I don't understand why

(* repeat 4 times and fade)
