Thank You Mr. Churchill - Peter Frampton

I want to thank you, Mr. Churchill

For making sure that I was born

Thanks for the innocence that made us feel secure

But time is wasting, hope is hungry now

It’s a dream I’m talking here

Much closer to the poor

If we start waging peace

Instead of waging war

When I wake to see the sun rise

I know I’m poorer by the day

I know the world will keep on turning for a while

But time is wasting, hope is hungry now

It’s a dream I’m talking here

Much closer to the poor

Information overload

It’s harder to ignore

The day you do the things

I’ll live with what’s in store

Will there be peace on earth one day?

If so, I hope I will be near

'Til we’re born with wisdom, war will still be here

It’s a dream I’m talking here

Much closer to the poor

If we start waging peace

Instead of waging war

Information overload

It’s harder to ignore

The day you do the thing

Or live with what’s in store
