Song For Sarajevo Lyrics
There's no where to hide, no where I can go
I reach out my hand touching death itself
just another holy day in SarajevoHiding from the planes and from the bombing
Fire in the sky burning down my life
There is no more love no more longingI dream of Peace
I dream of flowers on the hill
I dream I see my mother smiling
When I close my eyes I dream of PeaceOnce my mother sang to me and held me
Then the fire came falling from the sky
There is no one left who can protect meFeeding on the dreams of all the children
War's an evil bird flying in the dark
Every holy promise has been brokenI dream of Peace
I dream of flowers on the hill
I dream I see my mother smiling
When I close my eyes I dream of PeaceYou are tall and strong and I am just a child.
Can't we live in a peace stop the flowing blood
Make a blessed world where I can be a child.Do you dream of Peace?
Do you dream of flowers on the hill?
Do you dream you see your mother smiling?
When you close your eyes do you dream of Peace?You have struggled here in Sarajevo
Courage you have shown to the watching world
We have prayed and wept for SarajevoChildren dance again in Sarajevo
Now the sun can shine
Now the birds can sing
Let the peace continue, SarajevoDo you dream of Peace?
Do you dream of flowers on the hill?
Do you dream you see your mother smiling?
When you close your eyes do you dream of Peace?
