Bono - Peace On Earth
Heaven on Earth
We need it now
I´m sick of all of this hangin´around
Sick of sorrow
Sick of pain
Sick of hearing again and again
That there´s gonna be
Peace on Earth
Where I grew up
There weren´t many trees
Where there was, we teared them down
And use them on our enemies
They said that what you mock
Will surely overtake you
And you become a monster
So the monster will not brake u
It´s already gone to far
Who said that if you go in hard
You won´t get hurt
Jesus, could you take the time
To throw a drownin´man a line
Peace on Earth
Tell the ones who hear no sound
Whose sons are livin´on the ground
Peace on Earth
No whos or whys
No one cries like a mother cries
For peace on Earth
She never got to say goodbye
to see the colour in his eyes
Now he´s in the dirt
That´s peace on Earth
They´re reading names out over the radio
All the folks the rest of us won´t get to know
Sean and Julia, Gareth, Ann and Breda
Their lives are bigger than any big idea
Jesus, could you take the time
To throw a drownin´man a line
Peace on Earth
Tell the ones who hear no sound
Whose sons are livin´on the ground
Peace on Earth
Jesus, this song you wrote
These words are stickin´in my throat
Peace on Earth
Hear it every Christmas time
But hope and history won´t rhyme
So what´s it worth?
Is peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
We need it now
I´m sick of all of this hangin´around
Sick of sorrow
Sick of pain
Sick of hearing again and again
That there´s gonna be
Peace on Earth
Where I grew up
There weren´t many trees
Where there was, we teared them down
And use them on our enemies
They said that what you mock
Will surely overtake you
And you become a monster
So the monster will not brake u
It´s already gone to far
Who said that if you go in hard
You won´t get hurt
Jesus, could you take the time
To throw a drownin´man a line
Peace on Earth
Tell the ones who hear no sound
Whose sons are livin´on the ground
Peace on Earth
No whos or whys
No one cries like a mother cries
For peace on Earth
She never got to say goodbye
to see the colour in his eyes
Now he´s in the dirt
That´s peace on Earth
They´re reading names out over the radio
All the folks the rest of us won´t get to know
Sean and Julia, Gareth, Ann and Breda
Their lives are bigger than any big idea

Peace on Earth

Peace on Earth
Hear it every Christmas time
But hope and history won´t rhyme
So what´s it worth?
Is peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
