A song Neil Young could have written:
In deference to “When I hold you in my arms”
[Chorus]
I gotta be with you every day, I can’t stay away from you, babe.
I gotta be with you today, even if in a token way.
Tomorrow won’t come, the past is gone.
We’re lost, you know. There’s no light after the dawn.
[Body]
The soldiers die one a day, every day.
I cry inside when I read the Times,
News from the old lying lady.
She cries tears for the ones struck down in their primes.
Chorus
I saw the buildings fall, and grabbed you close.
I heard Rudy calm the fear of the ghost.
I saw Dubyah pray in the great church.
Chorus
Where can we go from here, dear friends?
Blood for blood, eyes for eyes?
No, let’s hitch a ride to a new cosmos,
One free of fear and hate.
No gravity to pull us down.
Only one pearly gate.
