歌词：

如果时间
忘记了转
忘了带走什么
你会不会
至今停在说爱我的那天
然后在世界的一个角
有了一个我们的家
你说我的胸膛会让你感到暖
如果生命
没有遗憾
没有波澜
你会不会
永远没有说再见的一天
可能年少的心太柔软
经不起风经不起浪
若今天的我能回到昨天
我会向自己妥协
我在等一分钟
或许下一分钟
看到你闪躲的眼
我不会让伤心的泪挂满你的脸
我在等一分钟
或许下一分钟
能够感觉你也心痛
那一年我不会让离别成永远

我在等一分钟
或许下一分钟
看到你不舍的眼
我会用一个拥抱换取你的转身
我在等一分钟
或许下一分钟
如果你真的也心痛
我会告诉你我的胸膛依旧暖

现在又出来了一个动画中文版，拿中文唱的，还真是英语的音：

In my dream, children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue and fields are green:
And laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see
Is a world full of people in need
<span style=”font-style: italic;”>Chorus:</span>
Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos i don’t understand?
When so many need somebody
We don’t give a helping hand Tell me why?
Everyday I ask myself
What will I have to do to be a man?
Do I have to stand and fight
To prove to everybody who I am?
Is that what my life is for
To waste in a world full of war?

<span style=”font-style: italic;”>Chorus:</span>
(children)tell me why? (declan)tell me why?
(children)tell me why? (declan)tell me why?
(together) just tell me why, why, why?
<span style=”font-style: italic;”>Chorus:</span>
<span style=”font-style: italic;”>Chorus Chant:</span>
Tell me why (why, why does the tiger run)
Tell me why (why, why do we shoot the gun)
Tell me why (why, why do we never learn)

Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn?

(why, why do we say we care)
Tell me why (why,why do we stand and stare)
Tell me why (why,why do the dolphins cry)

Can some one tell us why we let the ocean die?
(why,why if we re all the same)
Tell me why(why,why do we pass the blame)
Tell me why (why,why does it never end)

Can some one tell us why we cannot just be friends?
Why,why
