She dreams of nineteen sixty-nine
Before the soldiers came
The life was cheap on bread and wine
And sharing meant no shame..
She is awakened by the screams
Of rockets flying from nearby
And scared she clings onto her dreams
To beat the fear that she might die..
And who will have won
When the soldiers have gone?
From the Lebanon,
the Lebanon..
Before he leaves the camp he stops
He scans the world outside..
And where there used to be some shops
Is where the snipers sometimes hide..
He left his home the week before
He thought he'd be like the police
But now he finds he is at war
Weren't we supposed to keep the peace..
And who will have won
When the soldiers have gone?
From the Lebanon,
the Lebanon
The Lebanon,
From the Lebanon
I must be dreaming
It can't be true
I must be dreaming
It can't be true
And who will have won
When the soldiers have gone?
From the Lebanon,
The Lebanon,
The Lebanon
From the Lebanon..
Before the soldiers came
