Lyrics

My Heart Weeps (for the children)
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
My heart weeps for the children
Their innocence has been lost
My mind curses the ones
That pursue war at all costs

(v2)
Tiny eyes were never meant to see
The carnage of a senseless war
They’re young and unprepared
It’s not something they asked for

(chorus)
War
It’s not the first time
It won’t be the last time
But it’s certainly well past time
To think of a young child
Whose life is ready to unfold
But now may never grow old

(bridge)
Wars are a pursuit of hate and power
And it brings the darkest hours
Children do not start wars
Yet they are casualties still
And probably always will

(chorus)
War
It’s not the first time
It won’t be the last time
But it’s certainly well past time
To think of a young child
Whose life is ready to unfold
But now may never grow old
