Baghdad

I know the reason..
You don’t have to lie
This is the season when the wells run dry
You don’t have to lie
Truth is in the sky

I saw you walking
You were alone
Nobody was talking, no-one was at home
You don’t have to think
Don’t have to do anything

Richie Havens sang at Woodstock
‘Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
A long way from home…’

Both bridges to Baghdad
Are broken now
Some people were swimming
I thought they might drown
Ah but they have no water
You don’t see them cry
Even their tears are dry
Truth is in their eyes
They’ve seen through your lies.. lala lies
