A note from Barbra :

This collection of songs reflects what’s been on my mind lately.

These are troubling times, and I felt compelled to add my voice to the dialogue some of us have been having. Many of the fundamental principles of democracy and freedom we’ve always taken for granted – freedom of the press, freedom of speech, freedom of expression – are eroding at an alarming rate. Even basic human decency appears to be melting away faster than the polar ice caps. I wanted to write and sing about some of these things… not only to convey my concerns, but also to state my belief that, if we remain vigilant to the truth, things can eventually turn around.

In the past year we’ve seen the very worst of humanity… and the very best. In the face of unimaginable natural disasters and unspeakable human cruelty, there have been many acts of kindness and courage to remind us of who we have the potential to be when we listen to the better angels of our nature.

I’ve been especially moved by the millions of young people in the United States and around the world who have found their collective voice and are demanding to be heard. They are more interested in building bridges than walls. They are the very definition of hope. They’re on my mind… and I dedicate this album to them.

With love and light

Why can you just tell me the truth?
Hard to believe the things you say
Why can't you feel the tears I cried today, cried today, cried today

How do you win if we all lose?
You change the facts to justify
Your lips move [?] your words get in the way, in the way, in the way

Kings and Queens, crooks and thiefs
You don’t see the forest or the trees
Head and heart on their knees
You can see what we all see

How do you sleep when the world is turning?
All that we built has come undone
How do you sleep when the world is burning?
Everyone answers to someone


Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
Don’t lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me

You can built towers of bronze and gold
You can built castles in the sky
You can use smoke and mirrors all clichés
Not today, not today

Kings and Queens, crooks and thiefs
You don't see the forest or the trees
Head and heart down their knees
You can see what everyone sees

How do you sleep when the world is turning?
All that we built has come undone
How do you sleep when the world is burning?
Everyone answers to someone

Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me

Can you see I'm crying?
Can you see we’re crying?
Where’s the new horizon?
Where's the new horizon?

How do you sleep?
How do you sleep?
How do you sleep?
How do you sleep?
Enough is enough
How do you sleep?

Don’t lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me

Can you see I’m crying?
Can you see we're crying?
Everyone answers to someone

Versione italiana da questa pagina
Perché puoi semplicemente dirmi la verità?
Difficile da credere alle cose che dici
Perché non riesci a sentire le lacrime che ho pianto oggi, pianto oggi, pianto oggi

Come vinci se perdiamo tutti?
Tu cambi i fatti per giustificare
Le tue labbra si muovono, le tue parole si intromettono, nel modo, nel modo

Re e regine, truffatori e ladri
Non vedi la foresta o gli alberi
Testa e cuore in ginocchio
Puoi vedere quello che tutti vediamo

Come dormi quando il mondo sta girando?
Tutto ciò che abbiamo costruito è stato annullato
Come dormi quando il mondo sta bruciando?
Tutti rispondono a qualcuno

Non mentirmi, non mentirmi, tu mi menti
Non mentirmi, non mentirmi, tu mi menti

Puoi costruire torri di bronzo e oro
Puoi costruire castelli nel cielo
Puoi usare fumo e specchi su tutti i cliché
Non oggi, non oggi

Re e regine, truffatori e ladri
Non vedi la foresta o gli alberi
Testa e cuore in ginocchio
Puoi vedere quello che tutti vediamo

Come dormi quando il mondo sta girando?
Tutto ciò che abbiamo costruito è stato annullato
Come dormi quando il mondo sta bruciando?
Tutti rispondono a qualcuno

Non mentirmi, non mentirmi, tu mi menti
Non mentirmi, non mentirmi, tu mi menti

Riesci a vedere che sto piangendo?
Vedi che stiamo piangendo?
Dov'è il nuovo orizzonte?
Dov'è il nuovo orizzonte?

Come dormi?
Come dormi?
Come dormi?
Come dormi?
Adesso basta
Come dormi?

Non mentirmi, non mentirmi, tu mi menti
Non mentirmi, non mentirmi, tu mi menti

Riesci a vedere che sto piangendo?
Vedi che stiamo piangendo?
Dov'è il nuovo orizzonte?
Dov'è il nuovo orizzonte?
