Lyrics
I just can't believe it. Look what is happening, violence and terror, in the streets of our towns.
Who could have done this? What kind of people? Feels like the whole world has turned upside down.
But the Lady in the harbor still holds her torch up proudly.
And keeps her watch over the land of the free.
Over amber ways of grain, spacious sky, fruited plane,
Up to the purple mountains Majesty.
And by the dawns early light, star spangled, broadly striped,
She'll keep her watch, from sea to shining sea.
There is no justifying, murderer and mayhem, innocent children, they didn't stand a chance.
We saw it on TV. We all watched in horror. Here in the home of the brave. It doesn't make sense.
Chorus.
