I just can't sleep tonight
knowin' that things
ain't right
It's in the papers
It's on the TV
It's everywhere that I go
Children are cryin'
Soldiers are dyin'
Some people
don't have a home
But I know there's sunshine
beyond that rain
I know there's good times
behind that pain
Hey can you tell me how
I can make a change
I close my eyes
and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes
and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I lose my appetite
knowin' kids starve tonight
Am I a sinner
'cause half my dinner
is still there on my plate
Ooo I got a vision
to make a difference
and it's startin' today
'Cause I know there's
sunshine beyond that rain
I know there's good times
behind that pain
Heaven tell me
I can make a change
I close my eyes
and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray yea
I close my eyes
and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and
I pray for the broken-hearted
I pray for the life not started
I pray for all the
lungs not breathin'
I pray for all the souls
that need a break
Can you give 'em one today
I just can't sleep tonight
Can someone tell me
how to make a change
I close my eyes
and I can see a better day
Yeah yeah
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes
and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and
I pray
Oh
I pray
I pray
I close my eyes and pray
