For The Children - John Mellencamp[00:00:00]
I wish I could give you an answer[00:00:11]
As to when life really begins[00:00:16]
I wish I could tell you where we went[00:00:22]
When our days here come to an end[00:00:27]
Wish I could see the future[00:00:32]
The same way I see the past[00:00:36]
Wish I could draw a conclusion[00:00:42]
Why nothing here seems to last[00:00:46]
I can't even make a guess[00:00:55]
Or an uneducated thought[00:00:59]
All I can do here is my best[00:01:05]
And be thankful for what we've got[00:01:09]
Why do so many suffer[00:01:34]
Oppressed to the end of time[00:01:38]
Why does freedom move so slowly[00:01:44]
Unable to speak it's mind[00:01:48]
Some say it's a circle[00:01:54]
Others think we live on the wing[00:01:59]
Why are promises broken[00:02:05]
And some think life don't mean a thing[00:02:09]
I can't even make a guess[00:02:17]
Or an uneducated thought[00:02:22]
All I can do here is my best[00:02:28]
And be thankful for what we've got[00:02:31]
I hope you can be a child of life[00:02:56]
With big dreams for everyone[00:03:00]
And know that dying's as natural as birth[00:03:06]
And our troubles here they don't last long[00:03:10]
I have worried about many things[00:03:17]
Most of which did not come to pass[00:03:21]
Hope you find someone to give you love[00:03:26]
And that your love will last[00:03:32]
I can't even make a guess[00:03:39]
Or an uneducated thought[00:03:44]
All I can do here is my best[00:03:50]
And be thankful for what we've got[00:03:54]
We've got[00:04:02]
