Lyrics:
Tell me why this world is a mess
I thought you always tried your best
Tell me what I’m ought to do
Maybe you should do it too
Tell me why they’re sleeping alone
No house no where to call a home
Tell me what I’m meant to see
Won’t you stop preaching at me
And I wanna see what it’s all about
And I wanna live, wanna give something back
Don’t tell me that it’s over
It’s only just begun
Don’t tell me that it’s over
Or that this song is sung
The song is sung
All the money in the world
Would never slit all the wrongs to right
All the fire in the world
Would never set my heart alive
I dream of a day when it’s all gone away
And the sun is shining bright
I dream of a day when it’s all gone away
But dreams are for night
And I wanna see what it’s all about
And I wanna live, wanna give something back
Don’t tell me that it’s over
It’s only just begun
Don’t tell me that it’s over
Or that this song is sung
The song is sung
Don’t tell that it’s over
Please I’m on my knees I’m beggin you to stop
It’s over please I’m on my knees I’m beggin you to stop
And I wanna see what it’s all about
And I wanna live, wanna give something back
Don’t tell me that it’s over
It’s only just begun
Don’t tell me that it’s over
Or that this song is sung
The song ïs sung
