All They Wanted To Say |
I don’t know what makes a man |
Or a woman even think that |
Terror isn’t evil |
How could anyone have plans |
That would guarantee the death of |
Thousands of people |
And yet as I look back now on what happened |
Like the calls from those in planes |
They were trapped in |
Whatever they felt that day |
I love you |
That was all they wanted to say |
Call this if you like naive |
But if I don’t threaten your life |
Why would you deplore me |
Just because I might believe |
In a different set of values |
You think it unholy |
What you must remember in |
They were facing |
Many feared the worst in calls |
They were making |
And yet as is shown that day |
I love you |
That was all they wanted to say |
It’s a fine line you cross when you talk of a loss |
In terms of its market share |
There are paintings worth millions gone |
Who even cares who’d even dare |
Even if your faith in god is now dwindling |
Think of those who called up trapped |
Inside those buildings |
Knowing what before them lay |
I love you |
That was all they wanted to say |
Nobody I think who’s been |
Caught up in an act of terror |
Needs to be reminded |
What you can’t envisage seeing |
Is for some very reason |
They are so delighted |
Never realized before until this hour |
Words however much abused |
Have so much power |
Think of those who called that day |
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you |
That was all they wanted to say |
