How many hours

Mother's 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

Bridge:
Hold me
Cover my sight
This is no paradise
Don't show me the
evil sides of the world

Chorus:
How many hours and
how many days
Love is just slipping away
How many hours and
how many years in tears
How many centuries and
how many loves in fears

People selling flowers like
nothing's going in
Turning their backs
on a world gone wrong

Children play around
I guess they've found some wheels
You see them running down
the naked fields

Bridge

how many hours and
how many days
Love is just taking away
How many seasons and how many years in tears.
