You & I
You and I, we are the same
We win and lose in the game of life
You and I, we seek the truth
Looking for the signs in the Universe
In this journey we are companions
Struggling through what life throws our way

Why should a mother cry?
Why should a wife see her husband die?
Oh, tell me why do we have to fight?
Why don't we try, just you and I?
Oh, why don't we try?

You and I, we love our land
Protect our own against any harm
You and I dream of the day
When everybody will live in peace
In this journey we are companions
Struggling through what life throws our way

Why should a mother cry?
Why should a wife see her husband die?
Oh, tell me why do we have to fight?
Why don't we try, just you and I?
Oh, why don't we try?
Throughout history so many senseless wars
Yet we never learn, we're building borders around us
But we still have a chance to heal our wounded world
Let's get rid of hatred and see each other as we really are
Before it's to late, who knows what tomorrow may bring
But without justice there's no way that peace can exist

Why should a mother cry?
Why should a wife see her husband die?
Oh, tell me why do we have to fight?
Why don't we try, just you and I?
Oh, why don't we try?
