songwriter - brian protheroe lyrics

[verse 1]
there once was a songwriter
he wrote a song to heal the world
he sang about peace and forgiveness
he sang about love and understanding
and when the people heard his song
there was a hush and a silence
they turned around to him one by one
they said “you think we love violence?”
you misunderstand the situation
we don’t believe in war
but we must defend our homeland
we must protect our children
we know what we are fighting for
just look around you (just look around you)
how can we ignore this destruction
just look around you (just look around you)
how can we endure this suffering (suffering)
lend your voice to us
help us stand together
stand up and fight with us
help us defeat the oppressor

[verse 2]
it’s cold on the front line
the bitter night draws in
here on the front line
a place where no bird sings
we watch the horizon
the guns are quiet now
we scan the horizon
while distant shadows deepen
[bridge]
what’s that movement?
maybe nothing
but something’s moving
there in the distant shadow land
something’s moving
something’s moving

[verse 3]
and then the songwriter
woke from his dream in the morning
the sounds that he heard were familiar
in the light of that english morning

[verse 4]
he wrote a new song
there in the light of the morning
the sound of a new song
carrying through the air
a song about freedom
a song about truth and injustice
a song about standing together
a song about homeland
a song about strength and resistance
a song about standing together
