Terrorism in London: White Dove

This post is for the London bombing victims. By and large, the average Malaysian has forgotten the incidents that took place a thousand miles away in a mat salleh country, putting it aside like yesterdays new (literally). But "while the sun goes down, the world goes by..."

(I suppose the Scorps, while infamous for a lot other things, did one thing right with this song...)



White Dove by the Scorpions

A place without a name, under a burning sky
There's no milk and honey here in the land of God
Someone holds a sign, it says we are human, too
And while the sun goes down, the world goes by

White dove, fly with the wind
Take our hope under your wings
For the world to know, that hope will not die
Where the children cry

Waves, big like a house they're stranded on a piece of wood
To leave it all behind, to start again
But instead of a new life, all they find is a door that's closed
And they keep looking for a place called home

White dove, fly with the wind
Take our hope under your wings
For the world to know, that hope will not die
Where the children cry

Can anyone tell me why, the children of the world
Have to pay the price, and now your telling me
You've seen it all before I know that's right but still it breaks my heart
Well, the golden lamb we sent, makes us feel better now
But you know it's just a drop, in a sea of tears

White dove, fly with the wind
Take our hope under your wings
For the world to know, that hope will not die
Where the children cry
