Those who start wars, never fight them 

And those who fight wars, they never like them 

And those who write laws, can recite them 

And those who fight laws, they live and die by them 



But I know its time 

Yes I know its time 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home 



Don't take our boys away 

Don't take our girls away 

Don't take our boys away 

Don't take our girls away 



Those who build walls are pretending 

That forever they can defend them 

Those who dam streams can build fountains 

Those of us who just let them run free 

Can move mountains 



But I know its time 

Yes I know its time 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home 



And I say, you whoooo 

You whoooo who who who, you whoooo who who who 



Doves fly by in the morning light 

Leaves fall down on a passer by 

Phone call comes and a mamma cries 

Tears stream down from a daddy's eyes [X2]



But I know its time 

Yes I know its time 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home 

It's time to go home
