I just can't sleep tonight

Knowing that things ain't right

It's in the papers it's on the TV it's everywhere that I go

Children are crying soldiers are dying some people don't have a home

But I know there's sunshine behind 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 brighter 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 knowing kids starve tonight

Am I a sinner 'cause my dinner is still on my plate

Ooh I got a vision to make a difference

And it's starting today

'Cause I know there's sunshine behind that rain

I know there's good times behind that pain

Can you tell me how I can make a change

I close my eyes and I can see a brighter day

I close my eyes and pray

I close my eyes and I can see a better day

I close my eyes and pray for the brokenhearted

I pray for the life not started

I pray for all the ones not breathing

I pray for all the souls in need

I pray 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 brighter day

I close my eyes and pray

I close my eyes and I can see a better day

I close my eyes and I pray I pray I pray

I close my eyes and pray
