Don't You Want to Believe?

Sitting on the front steps just staring at the sky      
Waiting for the storm to come and paint the world white  
Checking with the kids about what they still believe
They say they have been dreaming  
About waking in the darkness     
And lighting candles hoping that the                
Morning brings a miracle   

Maybe I could still believe       
Once they tell me what they see    
It's not  about some industry  
It's only for a night to be   
Lost inside the mystery just close our eyes and whisper why
Don't you want to believe?                                 

I watch them laughing making angels in the snow
I think of all the things I'd prefer they didn’t know
Asking about the reasons we cut down another tree  
Talking about My Favorite Things    
And all the songs we love to sing 
And lighting candles hoping that the                       
Morning brings a miracle     

Some days it all goes by way too fast 
Somehow I know this day was meant to last 

Maybe I could still believe
Once they tell me what they see   
It's not  about some industry
It's only for a night to be        
Lost inside the mystery just close our eyes and whisper why
Don't you want to believe?
