Tell me why is your heart empty
If you walked a thousand miles
Would you find some place to call your home
That would make your life worthwhile
Do the stars all not shine above when your asleep in bed
Will the sun not rise to great you when you raise your weary head
Tell me why
Tell me why is your heart empty
If you found someone to love
Would you withdraw your senses
From the skies above
Does the wind not whisper sweetly, softly in your ear
If you found that special someone, would you disappear
Tell me why
Tell me why is your heart empty
If you found some meaning to life
Would you withdraw your senses
From the pain and strife
Does the Earth not cry out mournfully, like a little girl
If you found the secrets of Heaven, would you forsake the World
Tell me why
