Tell me, why do birds perch among trees?
Oh tell me, why do flowers bloom on grass?
Oh tell me, why do angels fall from the skies?
Oh my, and is that why you’re here with me
Tell me, why does water flow in the river?
(flow in the river)
Oh tell me, why does sand huddle in shores?
(huddle in shores, huddle in shores)
Tell me why, tell me why (tell me why)
are you sitting here next to me?
Or is that why you’re here with me
(oh, oh, oh)
Oh oh oh oh welcome to my home
Oh oh oh oh welcome to space and time
Oh oh oh oh this is earth that we call home
Let this be a world for you and for me
Tell me, why do colors stay the same?
Tell me why, oh tell me why does night turn to day?
(wo-ah, wo-ah)
I don’t understand, I don’t understand why things work their way
So be it, as long as your here with me
(oh, oh, oh)
Oh oh oh oh welcome to my home
Oh oh oh oh welcome to space and time
Oh oh oh oh this is earth that we call home
Let this be a world for you and for me
Oh oh oh oh welcome to my home
Oh oh oh oh welcome to space and time
Oh oh oh oh this is earth that we call home
Let this be a world for you and for me
(you and for me)
Let this be a world for you and for me
