Deep in our hearts we hold a longing for peace We pray for a time ...when the fighting will cease Deep in our hearts we hold a longing for peace We pray for a time when the fighting will cease Our frightened children running for their lives Violence steals their innocence Only sadness in their eyes Just for being born of a race or a creed The fallen angels of political greed Hold your fire Hold your fire Hold your fire Hold for those who love for you, and for me Hold your fire Hold your fire Hold your fire Hold for those who love for you, and for me We are tired We are tired Two lovers torn apart He weeps to the sky She paid with her life No time to say goodbye Two lovers torn apart He weeps to the sky She paid with her life No time to say goodbye No, no time to say goodbye Hold your fire Hold your fire Hold your fire Hold for those who love for you, and for me Hold your fire Hold your fire Hold your fire Hold for those who love for you, and for me

Hold Your Fire
