Every day’s made of stone Tonight my wordless dreams slip into song City lights I can see Beckon to me I’m not wastin’ more time No–o–o From far away they promise me fame Follow them right on through
Oh I’m on the run Tonight and every day I want everything ‘Cause I want everything
Oh I’m on the run I’m not afraid to say I want everything ‘Cause I want everything
Wave your hand on the quay I ain’t comin’ back this way ‘Cause those lights are gonna shine on me And I will learn to say Goodbye a thousand different ways Gotta start out somewhere Movin’ on, movin’ on now
Oh I’m on the run By night and every day I want everything ‘Cause I want everything
Oh I’m on the run I’m not afraid to say I want everything ‘Cause I want everything
If you wanna Wanna know everything Gotta reach inside your soul
If you wanna Wanna know everything Gotta face what you are shown
If you wanna Wanna know everything Find the place where you belong
Out on the road The price you have to pay If you want everything If you want everything
Every day’s made of stone Tonight my wordless dreams slip into song City lights I can see Beckon to me I’m not wastin’ more time No–o–o From far away they promise me fame Follow them right on through

I Woke up this morning, Hunger was gnawing my soul, But the preacher man's sermon, Won't put no food in my bowl,
Abidjan to Monrovia, Looking for food and a home, Instead, I found factions and armies, In the middle of a combat zone,
I want love, I need love, I want love,
I want love, I need love, And a little food in my bowl,
Here in this tribal warfare, For food you need money or a gun, I signed up - whose side I don't care, At least now I'm someone,
At parade time the grown-ups are cruel, And all of the soldiers are small, Commanders and captains and colonels, All kids with their backs to the wall,
I want love, I need love, I want love,
I want love, I need love, And a little food in my bowl,
They told me I'm joining a family, But here I ain't nobody's son, My brothers are right here beside me, We share our hunger and we share our gun,
Tomorrow we start the offensive, Been drinking palm wine all day, Grigrimen can keep us from bullets, But hash won't keep hunger at bay,
I want love, I need love, I want love,
I want love, I need love, And a little food in my bowl,
When it's time, the small soldiers march forward, When one falls, the next takes his gun, Four to one AK-47, I was number three, but now I'm gone,
Our future is dying right here, Children only ten years old, In this tribal colonial nightmare, We're reaping the seeds you have sown, We're reaping the seeds you have sown,
We want love, We need love, All of us want love,
We want love, We need love, And a little food in our bowls
I want love, I need love, And a little food in my bowl to moonn6pence from shootingstar(papayeverte)
Oh she is watching me And her eyes they flow With fond and tender pain I know, fate laid out a road We have walked alone And yet we meet again
Now I know finally I've never been alone I just couldn't see That like, The swirling of the sea Lies a mystery That brings me back to you
Oh, We put round our world Chains that we denied Yes we dreamed that we Were free, and this was our downfall With no place to go We drift eternally
Now, I know finally I've never been alone I just couldn't see That like the swirling of the sea Lies a mystery That brings me back to you Brings me back to you Brings me back to see Brings me back to all the things I've lost along the way
All I want to know (Now, I know finally) All I want to see (I've never been alone) I've never been alone (I just couldn't see) Cause I just couldn't see...
