Boyz II Men - Why Christmas lyrics

*Mike and Wanya talk in the beginning:* Mike: Hey, what's wrong squirt? Wanya: I don't know man. Sometimes around this time of year I just get depressed. Mike: Man, this isn't the time of year to be depressed. It's the time to be happy and giving, man. Wanya: You know, sometimes I think about things that are happening in the world today, things I didn't have. I just feel like crying. Mike: We all feel that way sometimes. But, it'll be alright. Wanya: I just, I just wonder why. Every day at this time of year I wonder time and time again Why are kids suffering? All of the tears 'cause being caught in the crossfire (Why?) Somebody tell me why As the joyous day comes along The eldest feel there's something wrong He's looking for Mom but she's not there Kids are looking for reindeer in the air Chorus: She messed up again Why? My brother and my sister They ain't got no toys What am I supposed to do When growing up for me wasn't joy? It's gonna be a why Christmas It's gonna be, it's gonna be a A why Christmas No one was there but Grandma and her friends A time of heartache is setting in There's nothing I can do Just sit and feel pain run me through I often wished they were never born The thought of them not having no toys Their little hearts were torn I was young and I cried as well I didn't have a job But I prayed to the Lord that there'd be better days Yes, he gave me a reason to live He gave me a sign But I still think to that day when Chorus Brother and my Brother and my Brother and my Sister (repeats a lot) Chorus (repeats to fade out)
