Bombs Upon The Bay Lyrics by Ian Randall Thornton

Lineage

0

It must be hard to love a woman after you have killed a man
To stay soft and open when war had her demands
I met a man both great and grey
With leathery hands and few words to say

He lived through Pearl Harbor, saw flames like Judgment Day
Survived to meet his daughter, and wept like the bombs upon the bay
Still it must be hard to love her the same
Under the scars and over the pain

But I’ve heard of the walking lame
Of the blind that see again
I’ve heard of the captive freed
Oh let it be done in me

[Instrumental Break]

Oh I heard that the hearts of man
Would turn to their son’s again

[Instrumental Break]

I’ve heard of the captives freed
Let it be done in my family
