Live in Peace - Elkie Brooks
Early in the morning
Just as the sun was rising
Came without a warning
The sound of the uprising
Gunfire in the street
Women and children crying
The crunch of marching feet
When a young boy's dying
Why can't we live
In peace
We live in troubled times
The shadow of a lie and nation
Troubles every life
And chills the heart of every nation
Darkness fills the night
She tries to steal your soul away
Killing innocent life
She spreads a shadow through the day
Why can't we live
In peace
Why can't we live
No release
You and I we don't know why so many people cry
You and I we don't understand the warlike ways of man
Why can't we live
In peace
Why can't we live
No release
You and I we don't know why so many people cry
You and I we don't understand the warlike ways of man
You and I we don't know why so many people cry
