Mothers giving birth to a little son crying in the rain of falling bombs Father he is young but deep and wise You see the fighter inside his eyes
Hold me cover my sight This is no paradise Don't show me the evil sides of the world
Chorus: How many hours and how many days love is just slipping away How many seasons and how many years in tears How many centuries and how many lives in fear
People selling flowers like nothing's going on turning their backs on a world gone wrong Children play around I guess they found some wheels You see them running down the naked fields Hold me cover my sight This is no paradise Don't show me the evil sides of the world
Chorus: How many hours and how many days love is just slipping away How many seasons and how many years in tears How many centuries and how many lives in fear
