In the still of the night
Lying in the darkness
I listen to my heart
Say it´sn´t true
In the dark & the quiet
The movements of our love
And the breathing of our children
Say it´sn´t true
In the streets & the buildings
People in their lives
And the jobs they do for livings
Say it´sn´t true
And when you think of all the people
In the cities of our worlds
Who could vanish in a moment
Say it´sn´t true
Say it´sn´t true
That there always has been & always will be war
Say it´sn´t true
And apart from all the finer things that men have struggled for
Say it´sn´t true
There always has been & always will be war
Say it´sn´t true
I am alive in the city
In a country of the world
And I want to go on living
I want to see my life unfold
You know it is hard to go on looking
At the stories of our days
And the dangers we´re facing
Growing worse in every way
And you´d think with all of the genius
And the brilliance of our times
We might find a higher purpose
And a better use of mind
Say it´sn´t true
That there always has been & always will be war
Say it´sn´t true
And apart from all the finer things that men have struggled for
Say it´sn´t true
There always has been & always will be war
