John Kirk - I Want to Know Lyrics

I want to know why the world's in such a mess
I want to know why folk just don't care less
I want to know why politicians lie
I want to know why hungry children die

I want to know why nations can't just share
I want to know why folk just idly stare
I want to know why greed's so popular
I want to know how we got the way we are

Where is the love where is the love where is the love that cares
Where is the love where is the love where is the love that shares

I want to know are the ice caps gonna melt
I want to know why the oceans kinda smell
I want to know why the trees all disappear
I want to know has the world now shed a tear

I want to know are the oceans gonna rise
I want to know is there fresh air in our skies
I want to know why the world's in such state
I want to know what is our children's fate

Where is the love where is the love where is the love that gives
Where is the love where is the love where is the love that builds a bridge

I want to know why we tear ourselves apart
I want to know what went wrong with our heart
I want to know why we look the other way
I want to know why so many are dismayed

I want to know is our future what it seems
I want to know is this the end of all our dreams
I want to know is there any hope at all
I want to know will someone catch us as we fall

Where is the love where is the love where is the love that gave
Where is the love where is the love where is the love that saves

It seems to me that society's broken
And I can see that the world is choking
What can we do well
I guess it's up to me and you
It's all down to what we choose
