Mothers giving birth to a little son

crying in the rain of falling bombs

Father he is young but deep and wise

You see the fighter inside his eyes 



Hold me cover my sight

This is no paradise

Dont show me

the evil sides of the world 



Chorus:

How many hours and how many days

love is just slipping away

How many seasons and how many years

in tears

How many centuries and how many lives

in fear 



People selling flowers like nothings going on

turning their backs on a world gone wrong

Children play around I guess they found some wheels

You see them running down the naked fields

Hold me cover my sight

This is no paradise

Dont show me

the evil sides of the world 



Chorus:

How many hours and how many days

love is just slipping away

How many seasons and how many years

in tears

How many centuries and how many lives

in fear
