Why Can't We

Look how the wind carries the seed
 See how the soil supplies what it needs
 The rain falls, the sun shines and a flower breaks free
 And it all works together, why can't we
 And I have seen children at play in the park
 Skin shades of ivory, red, yellow and dark
 Well, my eyes saw colors their little hearts could not see
 They were playing together, why can't we
 Why can't we, why can't we
 I can love you and you can love me
 Why can't we, why can't we
 Set our foolish pride free, just be and let be
 Why can't we
 I had a dream about a lion and a lamb
 They were laying together and there was peace in the land
 And swords became plowshares 'cause there were no enemies
 And I woke up and wondered, God, why can't we
 Why can't we, why can't we
 I can love you and you can love me
 Why can't we, why can't we
 Set our foolish pride free, just be and let be
 Why can't we
 Set our foolish pride free, just be and let be
 Why can't we, mmm
 
 Why can't we
