In a Child's Eyes
Daddy, Daddy, I'm confused. Why do people lie?
Teacher, Teacher, c'mere a sec. Why is the grass so green?
Neighbor, Neighbor, tell me please: Why is the world so mean?
Brother, Brother, speak your mind. Why do we always fight?
Sister, Sister, don't leave now - we have to make it right.
Grandpa, Grandpa, tell me now: Why do we grow so fast?
Grandma, Grandma, you know best: Why don't good things last?
You're my friend, so listen here -
Tell me something true.
I want to believe in something good,
So now I'll count on you.
