Why

Elisabeth Withers

Compositor: Elisabeth Withers / Toby Gad

If we can make diamonds out of stones
Talk to someone a thousand miles away by phone
Build a house that touch the sky
And them machines to let us fly
Then why can't i love you?

If we can find the grave of jesus
Find a cure to mans most dirty diseases
Out of rocks, clay and some dirt
Build the seven wonders of the world
Then why can't i love you?

If we can build a space ship
And fly into the moon
Then why can't i love you?
If we can walk in space
And conquer the stars
Then why can't i conquer you?

Why?
Why?
(why can't i love you?)
Why?

If we can tame beasts in the wild
Trace back history a millions years in time
Build bridges over raging waters
Walk the fire without shoes
Then why can't i love you?

If we can build a space ship
And fly into the moon
Then why can't i love you?
If we can walk in space
And conquer the stars
Then why can't i conquer you?

So simple, so divine
Why can't you be mine?

It's love
(just as crazy)
It's love
(just as sane)
It's love
(it's everything)

If we can build a space ship
And fly into the moon
Then why can't i love you?
If we can walk in space
And conquer the stars
Then why can't i conquer you?

Why, why?
(why?)
(why?)

Why, why, why?
Why can't i love you?
