So listen mothers everywhere
To just one mother's son
You'll get forgotten on the way
If you don't let them have their fun
Forget regrets, and just remember
It's not so long since you were young.
We believe there's a deed of obligation -
To bring reconciliation.
To make peace with every nation — in our time,
We believe there's not a minute we should be wasting
When the darkness falls it's too late to fix the crime.
It's peace that we need.
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime.
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore?
It's winter-fall
Red skies are gleaming — oh -
Sea gulls are flying over
Swans are floatin' by
Smoking chimney-tops
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming...?
One shaft of light that shows the way
No mortal man can win this day
It's a kind of magic
The bell that rings inside your mind
Is challenging the doors of time
It's a kind of magic
The waiting seems eternity
The day will dawn of sanity
Is this a kind of magic
It's a kind of magic
There can be only one
This rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be done
Loneliness is my hiding place
Breastfeeding myself
What more can I say
I have swallowed the bitter pill
I can taste it, I can taste it
I can't live with you
But I can't live without you —
I can't let you stay
But I can't live if you go away
