מילים לשיר Peace Song – Indigo Girls

Peace Song" is an Emily Saliers composition, probably written in
1985, as it appears on "Blue Food." If you're intersted in a more
definite "terminus post quem," it makes reference to the TV movie
"The Day After." So, all you gotta do is find out when THAT was, and
you've got a nice TPQ. Anybody who knows, let me in on it. Peace Song. We're a generation running out of time
There's a bomb, there's a man, there's a gun in his hand, yeah
Now, everybody's looking for a little peace of mind Strip us of our pride Well, nobody smiles at strangers, we're scared from birth
Afraid the man's gonna take us for all that we're worth (Come on and tell me)
With a man and a gun and the "day after" fear
How long will we be victims of fear
Jesus, smile down upon your children
Smile down upon your family Now, even lovers have trouble at hand
You get uptight about it, gonna fight about it
What's your preference
Wanting independence, separate but equal
Gonna fight about love Some are here, and others there
One more for the sequel to the heartache
How much more can we take? How long will we be victims of fear
(Won't you tell me)
Jesus, smile down upon your children
With a man and a gun and the "day after" fear
Smile down upon your family.
