Lyrics

[Verse] Maybe love is like a wind Blowing in and out again Buckling the top button To brace yourself for the CNN Maybe we should try again Maybe love will let us in Fear for not into the dark This is how the war will start [Chorus] When I was young I prayed for love Now I pray for the world at war/Now I pray for a new world war When I get old I'll hold my tongue And say farewell for the end has come And every breath of every word Will wreak havoc on return Hold on a little more There's an end to the war, I'm sure [Verse 2] Maybe faith is like the sun Shining down on everyone Hold the lens up to the flame Watch the embers come and save Maybe we can start again Throw the embers to the wind Fear for not into the dark There's a light beyond the spark [Chorus] When I was young I prayed for love Now I pray for the world at war/Now I pray for a new world war When I get old I'll hold my tongue And say farewell for the end has come And every breath of every word Will wreak havoc on return Hold on a little more There's an end to the war, I'm sure When I was young I prayed for love Now I pray for the world at war When I get old I'll hold my tongue And say farewell for the end has come And every breath of every word Will wreak havoc on return Hold on a little more There's an end to the war, I'm sure When I was young I prayed for love Now I pray for the world at war When I get old I'll hold my tongue And say farewell for the end has come And every breath of every word Will wreak havoc on return Hold on a little more There's an end to the war, I'm sure [Verse 3] Maybe we should try again Maybe hope will let us in Fear for not into the dark This is how the war will start
