I saw pictures of a small girl
Crying, livin in the lost world
The men fight for dear god, she don't care
Cuz there's nothin left to share

I watched T. V about a sick girl
She was only nine
She'll be gone soon
When and where she's going god will know
She doesn't want the sun to go

Don't you know that we care?
Keep the faith that hope is here
Deep in my heart I ask myself
Do we really, really care?

Read the paper of a colored boy
He was starving so were the lone vultures
Why so full of sorrow no tomorrow
No rainbow will he ever know

Don't you know that we care? (don't ya know that we care)
Keep the faith hope is here (hope is here)
Deep in my heart I ask myself
Do we really, really care?

Don't you know that we pray (we pray)
For you to see the light of day (the light of day)
For you to bring back the look of love
Words of wisdom is not enough
