Wishbone Ash - Why Don't We

Why don't we get some answers,
Stop messin' around with our lives
We hear the same old story, where's the glory
It's our lives, it's our lives!
Changes are vital, do we care
It's taken far too long - maybe we're there
Start walkin' with our time, if you dare.
There is a rightness, yes, everywhere.
Why don't we, why don't we,
Open our eyes
Why don't we, why don't we,
Change our minds

Honest and sweet surrender -
Never wanted this illusion
In our lives.
Trials and tribulations,
Familiar conversations,
In our lives, in our lives.
Competing against everyone,
A trap, that, and a snare.
Return to nature, no solution, so beware!

How can it be this way
Shouldn't be so.
Surviving day after day,
Unwilling to let go.

Why don't we, why don't we,
Share this time
Why don't we, why don't we,
Open our eyes

Livin' with a global village,
Aware of the unexpected
In our lives.
Transforming greed and pillage,
Not to be rejected -
It's our lives, it's our lives!

Changes are vital, do we care
It's taken far too long - maybe we're there
Stop workin' with our time, if you dare.
There is a rightness, yes, everywhere.

Why don't we, why don't we,
Open our eyes
Why don't we, why don't we,
Share this time
Why don't we, why don't we,
Change their minds
Why don't we, why don't we,
Share our lives
