Mothers giving birth to a little son
crying in the rain of falling bombs
Father is young but deep and wise
You see the fighter inside his eyes
Home 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 bads 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
