Lyrics

Many people die
So many left to cry
Children caught in crossfire
Devastation right outside our experience
We can only look
Through our fathers' eyes
We observe the world
Through our stable background
And we're lucky
Cry for Africa
Cry for the Balkans
Cry for Ulster
Cry for the Lebanon
Cry for history
Cry forever
And how long does it take
For normal lives to make
For generations who
Will have to cope
And come to terms with this madness
And it seems to me
The killing's just too easy
Like a cancer grows
And the healing's just too slow
And there's no patience
Cry for Africa
Cry for the Balkans
Cry for Ulster
Cry for the Lebanon
Cry for history
Cry forever
Forever
