Where are the children we lost not long ago   Feel for the Mothers who weep for them   I pray for the Fathers who are standing by their side   In their world of pain and suffering      Have you ever seen the look in a hungry child's eyes   They can't eat money or promises   Give them your smile and try holding out your hand   Let them know you're there, let them know you're there      Chorus   Why is it always the ones that we love   Are the ones that will never come home   Why must all of the bridges we cross take their toll   Always remember the voice in your head   Speaks to you when you're alone   And it comforts you   From the top of your heart to the bottom of your soul      You can swim in a river of tears they cry   For they sleep on the winds of uncertainty   Show us a sign and make us believe again   There's no other way, oh, there's no other way      Chorus   Instrumental Break   Chorus
