Translated lyrics
I look out of the window and it makes me very sad spring has left and who knows when it will return. The clown has become king and the prophet has become a clown And I have forgotten the way, but I am still here Chorus: And all will be good, yes all will be good, Though I sometimes break down. But this night...oh, this night, I will stay with you. Children wear wings and fly off to the army (Tzahal) and after two years they return without an answer. People live under stress looking for a reason to breathe and between the hatred and murder, they talk about peace. ::Chorus:: Yes, up there in the sky, clouds are learning how to fly, and I look up and see a hijacked airplane. A government of generals divide the land, "That's theirs and that's ours,"--when will we see the end? (Newish Bridge) We will learn to live together between the groves of olive trees, Children will live without fear, without borders, without bomb-shelters, On the graves grass will grow, for Peace and Love, One Hundred years of war but we have not lost hope. Chorus: X2 I look out of my window and maybe, yes maybe, there will come a new day...
