(*) 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)
