Paul O'brien - Before The War lyrics
Your rating:
Before the War (Paul O'Brien) We used to skip (Before the war) We used to sing (Before the war) And we could dance We could believe There was no star Stitched to our sleeve We used to play Before the war And we made hay Before the war We ran our shops We had our laws We offered god Our marriage vows But the star of Bethlehem Came between us and them The star the wise men drew Is taking me from you These men they send us east In wagons made for beasts To work and make them Stronger than before Beyond their wildest dreams Before the war Remember how Before the war We were friends Before the war And when I write I'll send my love On passions wings Like Noah's dove Remember me Before the war Before you sleep Before the war Before their boots Echoed through our street Remember me In every girl you meet But the star of Bethlehem Came between us and them The star the wise men drew Is taking me from you These men they send us east In wagons made for beasts To work and make them Stronger than before Beyond their wildest dreams Before the war
