Father
give me just a sign
that I'll survive
how can I stay alive
when guns shot fire

People
I can feel the hate
behind their eyes
insanity rules my life
got no tomorrow

It's such a long long way from home
and in my heart I can't go on
lost on this battlefield of hope
I feel so lonely
it's such a long way from home
my bleeding heart
can't take no more
another day of war
that's waiting on my way

Darling
there's so much pain
I keep inside
I couldn't believe my eyes
the sky's are burning

Help me
understand this fight
for wrong or right
what does it matter now
the world is dying

It's such a long long way from home
and in my heart I can't go on
lost on this battlefield of hope
I feel so lonely
it's such a long long way from home
my bleeding heart can't take no more
another day of war
is waiting on my way

It's such a long way from home
and in my heart I can't go on
lost on this battlefield of hope
I feel so lonely
it's such a long long way from home
my bleeding heart can't take no more
another day of war
is waiting on my way
