This brings light to a face
These are the beats you can't deny
Have you ever been into a place?
Slowly close your lips
These are the ones that I live for
The ones that I will live for
Tell me why
Are we not back in the game?

Ileana, go and grab my hand again
In your eyes, a light and smile I do not understand
Though I try
Blue sky over head and the black creepin' in
Whoa
This is where I'll dig in my heals
This is where I'll make my stand
Oh, tell me why
Are we not back in the game?
Tell me why, oh Lord why?
That is all I'll ever say
All I'll ever say
(Are they heard? Are they seen? Are they heard?)

Old man, go and put your jar away
Do you not speak, see or feel as the watch and as they play?
Little hands, little eyes
And their feet slowly marching on
Tell me you have heard
Tell me you have heard
Tell me you have heard this song
Why are we not back in the game?
Tell me why, oh Lord why?
That is all I'll ever say
Tell me why, oh Lord why? Are we not back in the game?
Oh
Bring them love, bring them light, bring them melody
