Remembrance Day
Midge Ure While I was standing I saw One man all dressed in truth Two men before my eyes, Isaw The other man was dressed in lies One man held green and gold The other man blue, white and red And they smiled as they held guns to our heads While I was standing I saw Two men before my eyes Watch as the rain begins to fall Like tears from heaven on us all To clean the sins we've made While I was standing I saw And wash them away, wash them away Faces of children wondering Two countries go to war, I saw What their friends were fighting for On Remembrance Day and I cried A crowd of people stood in silence As they blew them all away While I was standing I saw Two men before my eyes Watch as the rain begins to fall Like tears from heaven on us all And wash them away, wash them away To clean the sins we've made Two men with one God to share While I was standing I saw Both wanting peace by war Both want to win by prayer How long before they find And they find that there's nothing left to win This holy war a heinous sin Additional keyboards: Robbie KilgoreBass guitar: Mick Karn Drums: Mark Brzezicki |
