War Song: (Original song: Your Song by Elton John)

It’s a little bit sickening this feeling inside
As the planes both came from out of the skies
They hit the Trade Centre and boy it was big
The day that hell came to where we live

He says he’s religious, but then again no
Osama Bin Laden and his bloodthirsty show
Shouting with joy that his God is so great
The dead are the victims of all his hate

And he will blame everybody, this is his way
He’s gone and killed so many but still he’s not done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words
How sad are the tears now all through the world

I sat in my lounge turned down the sound
I saw so many buildings been razed to the ground
But the world’s been so kind, it’s been so strong
As we wait for survivors to come back home

So excuse me for speaking but these things I feel
I’m still not sure if what I saw was real
Anyway the thing is, what I really mean
This was the saddest thing I've ever seen.

And he will blame everybody, this is his way
He’s gone and killed so many but still he’s not done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words
How sad are the tears now all through the world

I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
That I put down in words
How sad are the tears now all through the world

Thank you for your many links and remembrances. May I suggest just one more?

Oh, I'm not sure that was the right link. I meant to send you to American Digest.
