Your Vegas - The Way War Was Won lyrics

Runnin' as fast as I can

Can't even see where I am, yeah

Over the soldiers and the sand
This wasn't part of the plan


I never see the dawn
Although I know it comes, yeah

If I ever see blue skies in my town

You know I'll kiss the ground we walk on

If I ever watch fire flies all around

Shinin' like the stars above them

The bullets fly over my head

Just like the words that you've said, son,

So put down your guns,
And that's the way the war was won

Over the edge and beyond

Over the border there's no bombs

Falling on soldiers and sand

Holdin' their hearts in their hands


They never miss the dawn

And every day it comes, it comes


If I ever see blue skies in my town

You know I'll kiss the ground we walk on

If I ever watch fire flies all around

Shinin' like the stars above them

The bullets fly over my head

Just like the words that you've said, son,

So put down your guns,

And that's the way the war was won

If I ever see blue skies in my town

You know I'll kiss the ground we walk on

If I ever watch fire flies all around

Shinin' like the stars above them

The bullets fly over my head

As I lie awake in my bed

I just can't forget what you said, son,

Let's put down our guns,

And that's the way the war was won
