----------------------------- All the years I spent in this place The friends I knew here, I loved every face I loved the smoke, the heat and the noise But the profits too small For the black-suited boys Oh angel, it's coming down stone by stone It's breaking up home by home Take it away, take it away In this place I will lay my life down In this place I will let you carry me As I age so my learnig grows I still touch the vision I still smell the rose in this place All the years I lived in this place The people I knew here, I loved every face I loved the parties, the funerals and fights The supermarket needs my land I have no rights Oh angel, it's coming down stone by stone It's breaking up home by home Take it away, take it away In this place I will lay my life down In this place I will let you carry me As I age so my learnig grows I still touch the vision I still smell the rose in this place All the years I spent in this place The childeren we raised here, I loved this country, the land of my birth But how much am I wnated How much am I worth Oh angel, it's coming down stone by stone It's breaking up home by home Take it away, take it away In this place I will lay my life down In this place I will let you carry me As I age so my learnig grows I still touch the vision I still smell the rose in this place >From the L.P. / Cassette "Peace in Our Time
