He was born on easy streets
|
Played so hard his feet they
|
never touched the ground
|
Never felt afraid
|
Hour after shining hour
|
No thought of time no parents worrying
|
Innocent of fear
|
|
Now my, my, look at that sky
|
Closing his eyes on a new tomorrow
|
Hey, hey, Heaven's in tears
|
Crying for the disappeared
|
|
She grew up on easy streets
|
Danced so hard her feet they
|
never touched the ground
|
Love was all around
|
No locks on their front door
|
She'd stay out late and
|
they'd know she was safe
|
No need to beware
|
|
Now my, my, look at that sky
|
Closing his eyes on a new tomorrow
|
Hey, hey, Heaven's in tears
|
Crying for the disappeared
|
My my look at that sky
|
Turning his back on a generation
|
Hey, hey, Heaven's in flames
|
And no one wants to take the blame
|
Blame for children of the disappeared
|
|
Chant:
|
Bleeding, crying, children, dying
|
My, my, look at that sky
|
Turning his back on a new tomorrow
|
|
Spoken:
|
Their life with never be the same
|
For children who disappear
|
and parents who live in fear
|
|
No more the easy streets
|
No sound of children's footsteps on the ground
|
Fear lies all around
|
No more the unlocked door
|
No more the children laughing as they play
|
Nowhere left that's safe
|
|
Now my, my, look at that sky
|
Closing his eyes on a new tomorrow
|
Hey, hey, Heaven's in tears
|
Crying for the disappeared
|
My, my, look at that sky
|
Turning his back on a generation
|
Hey, hey, Heaven's in flames
|
and no one wants to take the blame
|
Blame for children of the disappeared
|
