Listen Close: A Song

Kids Speak Out

Listen Close
You can still hear our singing
As we played
Side by Side

Listen Close
You can still hear our singing
As we danced
Blending the sound

What happened to that time
When you and I were friends?
How did our friendship end?
Where did you go…?
Where have you been?

All I hear is the sound
Of the soldiers, marching downtown
Cold black boots
And Unfeeling Eyes
But then I listen close…

And when you listen close
You can still hear our friendship
Lost in dark
Caught in woods

Listen Close
Let my voice lead the way
Back to your home
Back to my home
Back to our home…land

Do you see me standing there?
Are you able to let go of your cares?
Give me a hand
Remember when we could be friends.

Before all of the hardship began
Remember when we were still friends
Let us return to that again

Listen Close
End the strife
Listen Close
Begin a life Together- unified
