I saw a picture of a small girl |
Crying and living in a lost world |
The men fight for dear God |
She don’t care ’cause there ain’t nothing left to share |
I’d watched TV about a sick girl |
She was only nine but she’ll be gone soon |
When and where she’s going, God will know |
She doesn’t want the sun to go |
Don’t you know that we care |
Keep the faith and hope is here |
Deep in my heart I ask myself |
Do we really, really care |
I read the paper of a colored boy |
He was starving so we’re the lone vultures |
Why so full of sorrow, no tomorrow |
There’s no rainbow, will he ever know |
Don’t you know that we care |
Keep the faith and hope is here |
Deep in my heart I ask myself |
Do we really, really care |
Don’t you know that we pray |
For you to see the light of day |
For you to bring back the look of love |
Words of wisdom, it’s not enough |
