Anybody's War
ANYBODY`S WAR (I. Davies/R. Kretschmer)
---------------------------------------
Her arms around a flag of blue
His clours flying black and white
She hears the voice between the lines
He hears the warning, he turns his black
Anybody`s war
Who is there to catch the pieces
Anybody`s war
Faces we don`t recognise
She catches every last regret
She holds it gently like a dying star
He stands like a small boy in the street
Throwing rocks and stones into the crowd
Anybody`s war
Who is there to catch the pieces
Anybody`s war
Faces we don`t recognise
Anybody`s war
Turning round and round in circles
Anybody`s war
People just like you and I
Just a little too afraid
To take the blame that they can`t hide
Like a frightened child who is running scared
And they know each other well
Through the innocence long gone
Is the only thing they ever shared
She`ll promise that she`ll try again
He`ll promise that he`ll settle down
And they will call themselves the best of friends
But still they`re strangers, just like anyone
Anybody`s war
