Streets on Fire - Dobie Gray

Have you heard the song of sirens filling up the night

Have you watched the flames of anger burn something isn’t right

But you and I can stop the madness, doesn’t matter who’s to blame

No, together we can change

Streets of fire to peaceful roads

Cease the violence, let the healing waters flow

The veil of hatred can be lifted from our eyes

When the mighty gates of love open wide

If the heartless few divide us, the many stand to lose

We must rise above indifference or all stand accused

Faith can move the mountains, but the faithful must be strong

Along the way as we journey on

Streets of fire to peaceful roads

Cease all the violence, let the healing waters flow

The veil of hatred can be lifted from our eyes

When the mighty gates of love open wide

They’ll always be someone who just won’t agree

But your love and my love can take us down these

Streets of fire to peaceful roads

Why can’t we cease all the violence, and let the healing waters flow

The veil of hatred can be lifted from our eyes

When the mighty gates of love open wide

Streets of fire to peaceful roads

Why can’t we cease all the violence, let the healing waters flow

The veil of hatred can be lifted from our eyes

When the mighty gates of love open wide
