Time To Go Home Lyrics
And those who fight wars, they never like them
And those who write laws, can recite them
And those who fight laws, they live and die by them
Yes I know its time
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
Don't take our girls away
Don't take our boys away
Don't take our girls away
That forever they can defend them
Those who dam streams can build fountains
Those of us who just let them run free
Can move mountains
Time To Go Home
Yes I know its time
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
you whoooo who who who, you whoooo who who who
Leaves fall down on a passer by
Phone call comes and a mamma cries
Tears stream down from a daddy's eyes(X2)
Yes I know its time
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
It's time to go home
this song is incredibly simple, but the I love the bass line and the to the point lyrics really remind you how messed up war is.
i agree, its simplicity cuts to the point but definitely remains poetic
Those who dam streams can build fountains Those of us who just let them run free Can move mountains
good stuff
I feel this is an anthem for all our soldiers overseas....and for those of us who are serving or have loved ones who are serving . The lyrics are pretty simple, but in my mind I feel that this song states: there are those who sit in the high seats of power and can write and pass any laws they want, and they could care less about the amount of sacrifice it takes anyone involved in defending those laws. the toll it takes on the families and indiviuals. Whenever i listen to this song I feel it is just a cry that any service member can shout when they are away from the ones they love.
As much as I am with you, you can't blame those is their "high seats of power". They percieve things differently. However wrong it may be, they do not see it that way. They have to see people as expendalbe in order to function. The point of music like this should not be to instill hate these people but pity. See the bad and be angry, but if you want to change it keep it constructive. Not at all saying you were think this way. Its really just for anyone that will end up reading this.

Please please...
Please please please don't just sit listen to a song as and blow it off as just a song yall. Its much more than that. For artists like Franti, these songs show us our lost love for humanity. If everything over time (or at least most) sees and believe this then change will happen! Stay strong
