Lyrics
God & War © 1993 Declan Power
Can we live here without Godheads, without heaven?
Without our holy games?
Can we give more without waiting to be given?
And live just for today
Can we live here without barriers and hatred?
Without our bloody wars?
Would you like to someday see beyond this circus
Do you believe in something more?
I say a little prayer that things might change
I say a little prayer...
CHORUS: But you're everywhere I see you
Everywhere I go
You're everywhere I see you
God and War
Would you like to glimpse a part of the future
See past your dying day?
Are you frightened as the darkened night approaches
And you've outlived your stay?
CHORUS: But you're everywhere I see you
Everywhere I go
You're everywhere I see you
In everything I know
You're everywhere I see you..
I see you, see you
See you
God and War.
