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...
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...
