Why Don’t
Joachim Witt, Jay Hawker
Maybe the star we're on turns cold
Maybe the final joke's been told
Age is supposed to make a man so much wiser
But then you just grow old
Maybe the best was yesterday
Most of the boys just fade away
Lovers we spent or wasted
When we were younger soon it's time to pay
Why, why - why - why don't
(we forget, that the world is turning?)
Why, why - why - why don't
(we believe in the tricks we`re learning?)
Why, why - why why don't
(we get warm whilе the fire is burning?)
Millions of satelitеs so lonely in orbit
Watch us from above
Even a heart of stone may ache
Even a man of steel may break
Give me the night before you find out
Your hero's just another fake
Why, why - why - why don't
(we forget, that the world is turning?)
