Shame - Julia Fordham

There are not songs to sing on

News days like today

There’s only time to carry

These darkest doubts away

There’s only hope to cling to

On days like today

Should hang our heads in shame

What we’ve done in god’s name

Should hang our heads in shame

Only ourselves to blame

There are not dreams or feelings

That could seem to convey

There are not songs to sing on

News days like today

Should hang our heads in shame

What we’ve done in god’s name

Should hang our heads in shame

Only ourselves to blame

Maybe I’m naive, I still believe in peace
