Not War

"Andrea O'Brien is a Coventry-based singer-songwriter. Her song, No War, was inspired by the recent war in Lebanon. It's a popular song now on the local music scene."
I see in the distance....a city is burning
People are fleeing...people screaming
A woman falls down on her knees and
Is crying...'my child is dying...my child is dying'

Oh no...not war...people are dying again
Oh no...not war....people are dying again

For centuries...since man was born
Cities have fallen...lives are torn
Communities lost everything...they have no place to go...

Oh no...not war...people are dying again
Oh no...not war....people are dying again

Lord..are you watching
Lord...can you help them
Before...more innocent souls...are lost
Before...more innocent souls...are lost
Lord...are you listening
Lord....can you help them
Before...more innocent souls...are lost
Before...more innocent souls...are lost

The white flag...is blowing....high in the sky
Nobody's watching...noone's listening
A man stands alone...with what's left of...his wife
He cries 'Lord set me free!'

Oh no...not war...people are dying again
Oh no...not war....people are dying again

Lord..are you watching
Lord...can you help them
Before...more innocent souls...are lost
Before...more innocent souls...are lost
Lord...are you listening
Lord....can you help them
Before...more innocent souls...are lost
Before...more innocent souls...are lost

Oh no...not war...people are dying again
Oh no...not war....people are dying again
