WHY?

It was not meant to be this way,
There wasn't to be that terrible day
The day we said goodbye.
There wasn't to be a lonely man
Whose only thought is: why?

It was not meant to be this way.
There wasn't to be that terrible day,
The nights where the lonely cry.
There wasn't to be a crippled man
Whose only thought is: why?

It was not meant to be this way.
There wasn't to be that terrible day
the worry as their boys cry.
There wasn't to be the guilty dad
Whose only thought is: why?

It was not meant to be this way.
There wasn't to be that terrible day
the aching pain, the empty sigh.
There wasn't to be a wondering soul
Whose only thought is: why?
