TELL ME WHY - Declan Glabraith

"TELL ME WHY"

DECLAN GALBRAITH

CD DECLAN 2002

In my dreams, Children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue, the fields are green
And laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need
Tell me why,(why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why
Every day, I ask myself
what will I have to do to be a man
Do I have, to stand and fight
To prove to everybody who I am
Is that what my life is for?
To waste in a world full of war
Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why,(why) cause I don't understand
When so many needs somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Just tell me why (why, why, why)
Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why (Why why, does the tigers run?)
Tell me why (Why why, do we shoot the gun?)
Tell me why (Why why, do we never learn?)
Can someone tell us why we let the forests burn
(why why do we say we can?) tell me why
(why why is it still the same?) tell me why
(why why do we talk and run?) tell me why
can someone tell us why we let the ocean die
(why why do we always say?) tell me why
(why why do we pass the blame?) tell me why
(why why does it never rain?)
can someone tell us why we cannot just be friends
(why why do we close our eyes?)
(why why do we really lie?)
(why why do we fight for land?)
can someone tell us why cause we don't understand
why why?

AN ANGEL - Declan Galbraith

"AN ANGEL"

DECLAN GALBRAITH

CD THANK YOU 2006

Wish I had your pair of wings

I had them last night in my dreams

I was chasing butterflies

till the sunrise broke my eyes

Tonight the sky has glued my eyes

'cause what they see's an angel hive

I've got to touch that magic sky

and greed the angels in their hive

Sometimes I wish I were an angel

sometimes I wish I were you

sometimes I wish I were an angel

sometimes I wish I were you

All the sweet honey from above

pour it all over me sweet love

and while you're flight around my head

your honey kisses keep me fed

I wish I had your pair of wings

just like last night in my dreams

I was lost in paradise

wish I'd never open my eyes

Sometimes I wish I were an angel

sometimes I wish I were you

sometimes I wish I were an angel

sometimes I wish I were you

But there's danger in the air

trying so hard to be unfair

danger's in the air

trying so hard

to keep us scared

but we're not afraid

Sometimes I wish I were an angel

sometimes I wish I were you

sometimes I wish I were an angel

sometimes I wish I were you

I wish I were you

oh I wish I were you
