Happiness is like a place
And we're always trying to reach there
The Moon is caressing my skin
Boy, I am fundamentally sad
Why do we suffer so?
Why do we weep so much?
Why am I this sad?
Is it the end of hope?
Loneliness is like a ghost
And its frost makes us sick
The moonlight shines through the night
But my grief's skin is thick
Maybe we're facing up a war
And it's a war within
And only you can make it stop
Only you and me
Why do we suffer so?
Why do we weep so much?
Why am I this sad?
Is it the end of hope?
Suffer as you must
For the young shoots to break through the fragrant earth
And shoot up straight
Weep as you will
Until the day that you behold the great Sun
Beyond the rainy season
Worry as you must
For until the dark passes
You cannot behold the breaking of the dawn
Try as you will
Until the losses have a different meaning
You'll be the one for yourself
Why do we suffer so?
Why do we weep so much?
Why am I this sad?
Is it the end of hope?
Why do we suffer so?
Why do we weep so much?
Why am I this sad?
Is it the end of hope?
