"Tell me why" by Elton Willemse

Tell me why

Like a homeless soul lost on the streets
Where all the dead souls meet
Where a smile doesn’t cost a thing
And tomorrow is just a dream
And it’s written on your face
Your story leaves a broken trace
Where friends were made and friends got lost ...

Tell me, where you sleep
Tell me, what you eat,
Tell me how come you smile more than me
You don’t worry at all
Sometimes you sit where you fall
Tell me why you laugh for nothing at all

Did you make peace with this world?
Found a place in your mind
Where everyone is still kind
And you don’t have to sacrifice your soul
You don’t care about clothes
What you have is your own
Your life fits in one bag

Like the memories you shared
You sometimes walk past your life
The house you shared with your wife
But they don’t see you anymore
You’re now that beggar at the door

Tell me, where you sleep
Tell me, what you eat,
Tell me how come you smile more than me
You don’t worry at all
Sometimes you sit where you fall
Tell me why you laugh for nothing at all

I’d give everything to have your peace and strength,
Your courage to face this world
The humility to stand for what you believe in
The happiness to share … your last with all … with all

Just tell me, where you sleep
Tell me, what you eat,
Tell me, how come you smile more than me
You don’t worry at all
Sometimes you sit where you fall
Tell me why you laugh for nothing at all

Tell me where you get your strength ... x2
Oh! Tell me ...
