I got the call one summer night
|
He said you're on tomorrow's flight
|
My mother cried my sister too
|
My father said I'm proud of you
|
I can't believe it's true
|
We're going after 'who'
|
And still I wish that I just knew
|
What are we fighting for
|
When the price we pay is endless war
|
What are we fighting for
|
When all we need is peace
|
Though I'm blind to what I see
|
They tell me there's an enemy
|
I know I gotta get outta here
|
Insanity is drawing near
|
Can't take it anymore
|
I've knocked on heaven's door
|
No I'm not dying for this war
|
What are we fighting for
|
When the price we pay is endless war
|
What are we fighting for
|
When all we need is peace
|
What are we fighting for
|
Can't we learn from what we've done before
|
What are we fighting for
|
When no one ever wins, in war
|
A young man returns from war
|
Where he didn't know
|
What he was fighting for
|
The streets remained the same
|
But people'd changed
|
The medals on his chest
|
Didn't mean a thing
|
A tear dropped from the corner of his eye
|
Did he come come
|
My grandpa died in Normandy
|
My brother is still in Vietnam
|
I know there's nothing good in war
|
I know 'cause I've been there before
|
So what am I gonna do
|
I know this war ain't through
|
And still I wish that I just knew
|
What are we fighting for
|
When the price we pay is endless war
|
What are we fighting for
|
When all we need is peace
|
What are we fighting for
|
Can't we learn form what we've done before
|
What are we fighting for
|
When no one ever wins, in war
|
