Electric Litany : How to Be a Child & Win the War
Lyrics
1. DON'T FEAR THE WAR
How, can we win the war ?
And how, can we trick the bomb
The day, when we stop the war
Remember, those you once Loved
“The sea will wash me away, if I die,
then you shall remain”
Don’t, don’t fear the war,
For Me there’s nothing to hold
The day when we stop the war
Remember those you once Loved . .
(Barcelona 08/1936)
(Athens 12/2008)
2. HOME
I once knew a home,
Where walls were red, oh red.
I once knew a road,
Where dogs refrain, my name
I once had a Love
That I can’t repent
…(Don’t leave)…
3. THE DUNES
I met you in the dunes. If only,.
The lovely flowers that bloom.
I Loved you in the dunes…
The lonely hearts that bloom.
You ‘d Love me if the dunes…
Loved the flowers that bloom.
4. TEAR
Wake your fears, and you will know
Dry your tears and you will know
Come clear, and you will know
When you’re near, we just don’t know
Say what you want, don’t change, for we all love the change of Hearts
5. (LIKE WE DO IN) JANUARY
All, the birds,
Know, but don’t say
When, the song
Fails, to hold me
And, in a dream,
New Loves, inflame me
Then, let me down
Like we do, in January.
Come, as you are, who wouldn’t know..?
6. MINUTE
My friend I’m tired
Surrender my son
Weakness is there
Weakness is there
…Weakness..
Brother I’m done
Surrender your gun
Moment is near
Nothing to fear
…Weakness…
7. THE ROSES CAME
The roses came
I know you’re close
We feel your ways
“Alone” so cold
When you came
You found us all
Behind ourselves (‘)
The end, the end of Love.
The roses came
I know you’re close
We feel your ways
The end, the end of Love
Here is the way; I’m leaving today,
Finally I’m tired, I’ll see you in May,
Where hearts wash away in Love and Desire,
Only my heart…but finally I’m tired.
8. A DREAM WORTH DREAMING
Don’t look around
The sirens make the sound
Police and state are round
I hope the pigs will drown
Dreaming, I was only Dreaming
Dreaming, I never lost control
Love comes in the air
But the head of state won’t care
Free at last we stand
I hope we meet again
9. A TIME (NEVER BE LATE)
In sunshine, I won’t be long
Please don’t be long
Who wouldn’t long to see?
You and me . . .
In sunrise the time she’s gone
Please don’t be long
The time she’s gone from me…
Sun shine a light for the time she’s gone
Please don’t be long
The time she’s gone from me…
Sun shine a light but shine for us all
Please don’t be long
Who wouldn’t long to see?
You and me…
10. FEBRUARY
There’s a rope in my heart
That I connect to a rock
So when I think of you
There’s nothing wrong
There’s a rope in the hearts
Of those who wait a single hand
So then I find you here
And I do not know
Wait, there’s just one thing, wait…
There’s a hope in my heart
That I neglect every now –
And then I find you there
And then I know
What the hell did you expect
From those who wait a single hand
They deconstruct their hopes
To find a way back
(For the storms will come with such a shine)
