War Child lyrics

by

Smokey Robinson


I need city lights, defence and weaponry
No way of knowing my life expectancy
I learn resistance like I learn to see
A living witness; a lonely refugee

I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference between you and me
I'm a war child

My occupation is being occupied
I stop at the corner to be identified
Across the border, they pretend victory
I'm playing in the rubble and dream of destiny

I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference
Between you and me
I'm a war child

You weren't discovered by Khmer Rouge
We hear of "the troubles" on the nightly news
PLO lovers courting after curfew
Your father and brother have the West Bank blues
You weren't discovered by Khmer Rouge
We hear of "the troubles" on the nightly news
PLO lovers courting after curfew
Your father and brother have the West Bank blues
I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference
Between you and me
I'm a war child
