Eyelashes

Little girl Living in a war torn world She keeps tearing out her eyelashes She keeps tearing out her eyelashes And blowing them in the wind She can't wait for the wish to come She can't wait for the wish to come Little boy Saving up his hard earned pay He throws it in a well one day He throws it in a well one day Like a river on the run He can't wait for the wish to come He can't wait for the wish to come Child, with eyes that know We can try, we can try But we can't control... Where the wind blows Mean old man Living in the Promised Land He's telling her to fear alone He's telling her to fear alone Like she's the only one He can't wait for the war to come He can't wait for the war to come Child, with eyes that know We can try, we can try But we can't control... Where the wind blows Little girl Growing up day by day She learns to change her childish ways She learns to change her childish ways With the beating of her drum She can't wait for the wish to come She can't wait for the wish to come
