Songwriter :  Louise Ford Title :  Understanding Links :  Web Site | Buy CD | E-mail Song Info :  "My song 'Understanding' could also be called 'Find a Solution'. War is the opposite of peace and I find it difficult to accept the idea that it could ever help to create a peaceful world. I know that in order to be free we have to stand up for our beliefs and attempt to do our best to help those who cannot help themselves. However, there is so much to be lost whenever there is war. Human life is far too valuable to be sacrificed, regardless of the noble intentions of those who are fighting for what they personally believe in. I hope that humanity will someday find a solution other than war." - Louise Ford Download and listen : 2.00 MB file :: 3:29 minutes [Download MP3] MP3 Genre : Folk Verse 1 Can you hear thunder in the distance Can you see lightning flash across the sky Why do we challenge our existence Heartless war, the young are sent to die Chorus Don't you know we could find a solution We can search for another way Give to others as we would be given Understanding from day to day Verse 2 Can you feel the hunger of the millions Can't you see them living in the streets Old and young searching for an answer Soldiers praying for war to cease Chorus Don't you know we could find a solution We can search for another way Give to others as we would be given Understanding from day to day Narration Peace at last, let us hope war has passed And we'll live no more with this madness This we pray, for a better day For an end to the suffering and sadness Verse 3 All these wars never solve the problem So much lost and we wonder why Children weep, left without a family And the old wait they're turn to die Chorus Don't you know we could find a solution We can search for another way Give to others as we would be given Understanding from day to day Don't you know we could find a solution We can search for another way Give to others as we would be given Understanding from day to day Understanding © 2002 Louise Ford SOCAN
