Don't know what the world is going to do 

Or if we can get off now the road that we're on 

There's hate in my brother's eye but as the time goes by 

I get harder 



They say we learn by our mistakes and then we carry on 

Sometimes I'm not sure, sometimes I'm not sure 

There's no brakes on this car as it rolls down the hill 

My muscles are straining now, my foot's through the floor 



Perhaps that's why, perhaps that's why... 

I see the dolphin and it makes me cry 

As I look in your eye, I look in your eye 

As the time goes by, makes me cry. 



Don't wanna to go to school anymore today 

Because history, she keeps on and on repeating herself 

She can't forgive; she just licks all of her wounds 

Sore is the day, and sore is the night. 



Perhaps that's why, perhaps that's why... 

I see the dolphin and it makes me cry 

As I look in your eye, I look in your eye 

As the time goes by, makes me cry. 



When I was a boy, when I was growing up 

I remember life was so simplethen and life was so sweet 

Now that I'm older, I'm wise as a fool 

I keep on breaking those golden, golden rules... 



And perhaps that's why, perhaps that's why 

I see the dolphin and it makes me cry 

As I look in your eye, as I look in your eye 

As the time goes by, makes me cry 



Perhaps that's why... 

I see the dolphin and it makes me cry 

As I look in your eye, ask I look in your eye 

As the time goes by, makes me cry 



Did you ever touch the loneliness of a broken man? 

Did you see a starving child die? 

Do we really do these things to one another? 

Do you see why... 



Dolphins make... me cry.
