A Few Questions

How in this world
Can we put a man on the moon
And still have a need
For a place like St. Jude’s
Why is one man born
In a place where all they know is war
And a guy like me,
Has always been free

How can two people
Who’ve built a loving home
Try for years
And never have a child of their own
When somewhere out there tonight
There’s a baby no one’s holding tight
In need of love
To me that don’t add up

I wasn’t there the day you filled up the oceans
I didn’t get to see you hang the stars in the sky
So I don’t mean to second guess you
Or criticize what I don’t understand
These are just a few questions I have

Why did my cousin
Have to die in that crash
A good kid only seventeen
I still wonder ‘bout that
It seems unfair to me
Some get the chance to chase their dreams
And some don’t
But what do I know

I wasn’t there the day you filled up the oceans
I didn’t get to see you hang the stars in the sky
So I don’t mean to second guess you
Or criticize what I don’t understand
These are just a few questions I have

Why do I feel like
You hear these prayers of mine
When so many ought to be
Ahead of me in line
When you look down on me
Can you see the good through all the bad
These are just a few questions I have
