Song for Sarajevo (I Dream of Peace) |
| Blood in all the streets running like a flood |
| There’s no where to hide, no where that I can go I reach out my hand touching death itself |
| Just a holy day in Sarajevo |
| I can hear my heart pounding like a clock |
| Hiding from the planes and from the bombing |
| Fire from the sky burning down my life |
| There is no more love, no more longing |
| When I close my eyes I dream of peace |
| I dream of flowers on the hill |
| I dream I see my mother smiling |
| When I close my eyes I dream of peace |
| Once I had a home, once my life was good |
| Once my mother sang to me and held me Then the fire came falling from the sky |
| There’s no one left who can protect me War’s a wicked bird that never comes to rest |
| Feeding on the dreams of all the children |
| War’s an evil bird flying in the dark |
| Every holy promise has been broken |
| When I close my eyes I dream of peace |
| I dream of flowers on the hill |
| I dream I see my mother smiling |
| When I close my eyes I dream of peace |
| Can’t you stop the war? |
| Bring it to a close |
| You are tall and strong and I am just a child |
| Can’t we live in peace? |
| Stop the flowing blood |
| Make a blessed world where I can be a child |
| When you close your eyes do you dream of peace? |
| Do you dream of flowers on the hill? |
| Do you dream you see your mother smiling? |
| Open up your eyes dream of peace |
| And give us peace, give us peace |
