It was shattered by a gun

Heard a scream, saw him fall, no one cried

My heart was sadden by this terrible event

It never ends

Never leaves

It just gets worse

I saw two parents

They were praying for their son

Bring him back, let him live, don’t let him die

Do you ever ask yourself

Is there a Heaven in the sky?

If there is a heaven in the sky,

Can you listen to me now

Why can’t we get it right?

Why don’t they understand?

We all live in the same planet

We all live under the same sun

We all walk under the same moon

Then why, why can’t we live as one

I saw the evening

Fading shadows one by one

We watch the lamb, lay down to the sacrifice

I saw the children

The children of the sun

How they wept, how they bled, how they died

Do you ever ask yourself

Is there a Heaven in the sky?

Why can’t we stop the war?

No one wins when it comes to war

So why, why can’t we stop the fight?

In the end, we all end up as the losers

We all live in the same planet

We all live under the same sun

We all walk under the same moon

Then why, why can’t we live as one

Sometimes I think I’m going mad

We’re loosing all we had and no one seems to care

But in my heart it doesn’t change

We’ve got to rearrange and bring our world some love

Bring peace

Bring love, and harmony

And does it really matter

If there’s a heaven up above

We sure could use some love

‘cause we all live under the same sun

We all walk under the same moon

Then why, why can’t we live as one

‘cause we all live under the same sky

We all look up at the same stars

Then why, tell me why can’t we live as one
