John Cale
Tell Me Why
[Verse 1]
There's an end to the road that takes you home
There's a way of life you knew before
At the end of the day, you will have your rest
You find a way, you find a way
Don't resist the morning calm, it will keep you safe from harm

[Verse 2]
The time will come when help is found
You leave behind the things of the past
Though the road is long and the path is wide
We climb it still and seize the skies
It's only a matter of time, it's only a matter of time

[Verse 3]
The landscape has changed, the mood has gone
Along with the rest we carry on
If you take me back in space and time
I'll let the journey begin and keep you with mine
On this coat of many colours there's a lot of room for others

[Verse 4]
I see in your face the reason why
You fell from grace and you cannot find
The way from here that leads you back
To the place you know the best and its distance from the rest
[Chorus]
You tell me why, you tell me why, you tell me why
There's a saviour looking on
With the weak and the strong
Taking us to higher ground (Higher ground)
Leading us to higher ground (Higher ground)
Leading us to higher ground (Ground)

[Outro]
There's a saviour (There's a saviour) looking on (looking on)
There's a saviour (There's a saviour) looking on (looking on)
There's a saviour (There's a saviour) looking on (looking on)
There's a saviour (There's a saviour) looking on (looking on)
There's a saviour (There's a saviour) looking on (looking on)
There's a saviour (There's a saviour) looking on (looking on)
