Our Town
(Linda Bonadies)
Another day the same in our town
And then we turn on our tv
You can’t conceive of the destruction
Is it real or fantasy
The kids play in the streets in our town
But in our hearts we can’t believe
That people’s lives come down fall to the ground in your town
Can’t hold back the tears at what I see
‘Cause I know a friend
someone that I just talked to won’t go home again
Home to his wife and kids Home to his town
Whatever happened to the safe and sound
Consolation never to be found
‘Cause he will never be around again
Life goes up in flames in your town
No one can escape the heat
And look at all those lives their jeopardized in your town
They could easily be me
‘Cause I know friend
someone that I just talked to won’t go home again
Home to his wife and kids Home to his town
Yes I know a friend
Someone that I just talked to won’t go home again he had the right to live
But in this town love will see us through
And in this town I’ll pray for me and you till peace is found
So we will always be around
And in this town feel the mercy now
And in this town our voice rings clear and loud
That in this town this will never be allowed
‘Cause your town is my town and my heart is with you.
