War

Dreaming of tomorrow
a world filled with no sorrow
sun shine and butterfly
stars in lovers eyes

Waking to find it all astray
your still gone today
wishing you was back in my arms 
away from the worlds harm

Over in a place so sad
just because of things to be had
will the fighting ever stop
or will we fight till all hope is lost

Why cant this war end
have we not lost enough loved ones and friends
closing in on another dark day
wishing the war would just go away
