Tell Me Why - Declan Galbraith + Letra

Últimamente no ando con muchas ganas de pensar ni de buscar información interesante, de modo que esta vez os pongo un videoclip de mi canción favorita junto a su lírica.

El cantante es Declan Galbraith, tal vez lo conozcáis, la canción se titula: Tell Me Why, del single del mismo título (2002).
Es una canción de reflexión y con historia ya que, el 9 de diciembre del 2002, el coro más grande de la historia, de todas partes del Reino Unido e Irlanda, se unieron a Declan para cantar Tell Me Why (¿Por qué?) para un Record Mundial Guinness. El evento fue organizado por Young Voices in Concert y los fondos del récord fueron donados al Sargent Cancer Care for Children.

Declan Galbraith - Tell Me Why


Letra - Tell Me Why

In my dream children sing a song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue and fields are green and laughter is the language of the world

Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need

Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos I don't understand.
When so many need somebody we don't give a helping hand.
Tell me why?

Everyday I ask myself what will I have to do to be a man?
Do I have to stand and fight to prove to everybody who I am?

Is that what my life is for to waste in a world full of war?

Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos' I don't understand.
When so many need somebody we don't give a helping hand.
Tell me why?

(children) tell me why? (declan) tell me why?
(children) tell me why? (declan) tell me why?
(together) just tell me why, why, why?

Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos I don't understand.
When so many need somebody we don't give a helping hand.

Tell me why (why, why, does the tiger run)
Tell me why (why why do we shoot the gun)
Tell me why (why, why do we never learn)
Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn?
(why,why do we say we care)
Tell me why (why, why do we stand and stare)
Tell me why (why, why do the dolphins cry)
Can some one tell us why we let the ocean die?

(why, why if we're all the same)
Tell me why (why, why do we pass the blame)
Tell me why (why,why does it never end)
Can some one tell us why we cannot just be friends?

Why, why(do we close our eyes)
Why, why(do the greedy lie)
Why, why(do we fight for land)
Can someone tell us why cos we don't understand? Why? Why?
