Things are looking bad now
They never have been worse
To the north lie mountains,
To the south a curse..
Bloodstained footprints
In the shifting sands
Among the olive groves -of Cedarland

Lebanon,
Lebanon...
Lebanon,
Lebanon...

Young girls go running around
Giggling out the door
Every generation
has seen these wars before
Caught between a rock
and a hard, hard place
Still you live your lives
in a state of grace..

Lebanon,
Lebanon...
Lebanon,
Lebanon...


Old man smokes his pipe
And through world-weary eyes
He curses the cameras
And pleads to merciless skies
Through the ashes
float the words of Khalil Gibran
Love in time
will show her hand.

Lebanon,
Lebanon...
