The Waters Of Sarajevo lyrics

Tears roll down my cheeks in rivulets

They wash a warfare's tried, tired face

A mother's weeping I hear it now

Memories kept tucked away come back

A stranger sent to diminish the pain

Bewildered by the reasons that men

Could take from each other so easily

What is so very sacred to them all

Where is the justification in loss

That time and the winds have erased

What was so very hatefully important

Has washed away in the river's current

That eroding flood that subsides

Cleansing those bloody scenes

Silencing the unquenchable pains

Until men forget the carnage once more
