How Can It Be (Encore) [Live] - Live
Ooh, I've red a story in the paper the other day
About a man that took his own life
And had to take the children down with him
In the broad daylight
Or is there something we could have done?
Just the silence has gone, hey baby
And all the TV reporters came
To get the news, to find out his name
Just to tell that right story on the six o'clock news
Tell me who's to blame for giving him his moment, moment of fame
What I wanna know is how
How can it be
We hear aloud his voice
Oh, how can it be
This make you wonder sometime
How can it be?
My father told me if I study hard, believe in God
Oh-oh, I'm gonna make it someday
And every, every thing he told me wouldn't come easy in life
It would soon fade away
Please, don't tell me he was wrong
Now that he's gone
Ooh, I tried to teach my children right from wrong
Good from bad, tell them no lies
But all they just looked at window into the streets
And it's so hard to hide what's going on in front of their eyes
How can it be
We, we hear aloud his voice
Oh-oh, how can it be
Well, well, well, well, well
In who can the children look up to?
Oh
How can it be
We hear aloud his voice
Oh, how can it be
Yeah, yeah
How can it be
I don't understand sometimes
How can it be
Thank you
