Children Of The Disappeared Lyrics by Barclay James Harvest, The

Children Of The Disappeared Lyrics

    He was born on easy streets
    Played so hard his feet they
    Never touched the ground
    Never felt afraid
    Hour after shining hour
    No thought of time no parents worrying
    Innocent of fear

    Now my, my, look at that sky
    Closing his eyes on a new tomorrow
    Hey, hey, heaven's in tears
    Crying for the disappeared


    She grew up on easy streets
    Danced so hard her feet they
    Never touched the ground
    Love was all around
    No locks on their front door
    She'd stay out late and
    They'd know she was safe
    No need to beware


    Now my, my, look at that sky
    Closing his eyes on a new tomorrow
    Hey, hey, heaven's in tears
    Crying for the disappeared
    My my look at that sky
    Turning his back on a generation
    Hey, hey, heaven's in flames
    And no one wants to take the blame
    Blame for children of the disappeared


    Chant:
    Bleeding, crying, children, dying
    My, my, look at that sky
    Turning his back on a new tomorrow


    Spoken:
    Their life with never be the same
    For children who disappear
    And parents who live in fear


    No more the easy streets
    No sound of children's footsteps on the ground
    Fear lies all around
    No more the unlocked door
    No more the children laughing as they play
    Nowhere left that's safe


    Now my, my, look at that sky
    Closing his eyes on a new tomorrow
    Hey, hey, heaven's in tears
    Crying for the disappeared
    My, my, look at that sky
    Turning his back on a generation
    Hey, hey, heaven's in flames
    And no one wants to take the blame
    Blame for children of the disappeared
