keep asking why

Nashville (série)

If you've got the whole world in your hands
And this is really what you've planned
Well I've turned the pages, read the words in red
I still don't understand

Sat on the front row but I can't hear
Opened every window but it's still not clear
Asked for forgiveness, restoration for my soul
But I'm full of fear

I know I've seen an angel
I know it made me cry
So when I look at heaven
Why do I keep asking why

Well I know the sun comes from the east
Can't see the wind but I've seen it move the trees
I'da moved a mountain with the hours I spent praying
Down here on my knees

I know I've seen an angel
I know it made me cry
So when I look at heaven
Why do I keep asking why

The answer's just a whisper
And flickers in the night
So when I look at heaven
Why do I keep asking why

And when I reach that golden road
All of the answers to my questions will be told
I don't blame the garden or the apple that we took
I did the best I could

I know I've seen an angel
I know it made me cry
So when I look at heaven
Why do I keep asking why

The answer's just a whisper
And flickers in the night
So when I look at heaven
Why do I keep asking why
Keep asking why
Keep asking why
Keep asking why, why, why

Keep asking why
Keep asking why
Keep asking why
Keep asking why, why, why
