    Last night I cried and the tears couldn't stop
    my eyes filled with the heartbreak of those whom we've lost
    For a moment, I stood just motionless and still,
    what can we do now...so many have been killed..
    before the earthquake hit, the clouds above were rainbow filled,
    an ominous moment for those who witnessed and saw
    the beauty before the chaos that would be in store.

    I feel so powerless, I am so far away;
    I want to help but I must stay...(here)
    stay here to raise money for relief,
    but i don't know if that's enough,
    is there more I can do?

    All the money that I've raised has gone to the Red Cross,
    they have people down there, hopefully we can trust.
    I know that this is all i can do...
    please help me help them,
    do what you can do.

    End of Part 1

    the death toll rises and not just by ones,
    thousands are suffering, rubble by the tonnes,
    shattered souls, lives asunder,
    and now a flood may come through the villages like thunder.

    my brothers and sisters, I give you a message of hope,
    we are there for you in spirit -- an imaginary rope.
    grab hold, take heed, help is on its way
    through Red Cross to help with reconstruction ok?

    Our hearts are our prayers are with you everyday,
    I look up into the skies above wishing for better days,
    We have come so far, please don't quit now - -
    life has its plans we just must out the HOW.

    End Pt 2
