Thread Name: Lyr Req: songs for the tragedy, Sept. 11
Subject: RE: Song lyrics for the tragedy, Sept. 11
That's powerful. I really want to hear it. I've put the line breaks in, to make it easier to get the shape of the song and read it, and I hope I've done it right.

My heart cries for America,
Your fallen sons and daughters
Your anguish and your pain
My heart cries for America
The agony and terror
Let it never be again

We're living in the desert
We heard the news this morning
Demons from the heavens
Bring burning fires of hell
Crying and dying
Jumping from the windows
Slaughter of innocence
A crime we know so well
My heart cries for America,
Your fallen sons and daughters
Your anguish and your pain
My heart cries for America
The agony and terror
Let it never be again



Muhammed says Do not kill
Christ he says Do not kill
Allah says Do not kill
God says Do not kill
I can hear you calling
Just time to say I love you
Just time to say I love you I love you too
My heart cries for America,
Your fallen sons and daughters
Your anguish and your pain
My heart cries for America
The agony and terror
Let it never be again

We're living in the desert
We are not your enemy
But Demons from the heavens
Bring burning fires of hell
Crying and dying
Jumping from the windows
Slaughter of innocence
A crime we all know well
My heart cries for America,
Your fallen sons and daughters
Your anguish and your pain
My heart cries for America
The agony and terror
Let it never be again
