I wonder why the earth is round And why the plants grow in the ground I wonder why the birds fly in the air Hovering for hours without a care I wonder why dark means night And why the stars all shine bright I wonder why the wind blows cold And makes our bodies chill to the bone I wonder why the thunder roars And lightning strikes to the core I wonder why the clouds are high And move so slowly in the sky I wonder who gave names to things And if it was the same person who made you and me.
