You're singing protest songs Drop beatz, not bombs The path to true freedom But they're still waging war and not love Hippy kid All of your Hendrix, Shakespeare and Bill Hicks Peel and 'Teenage Kicks' On the airwaves Pray, 'Oh, come away, come away now' God forbid They're out in their desert fields making poppies grow Tending them in the sunlight Oh, come away. Past the trees Into the clouds, fly with me Follow me away then I'm waiting for you You're singing protest songs Drop beatz, not bombs And the world will live as one Yes, I'd say you're a dreamer Bless you Peacenick For famine, you take the stage White flags in outrage This time we turn the page But they're still dropping bombs In your name How is it? The answer, my friends to the four winds blown Drowned in the sound of our silence Oh, come away, down to the sea Over the ocean, sail with me Sail with me and I will, I will be here I'm here waiting I'm waiting for you Come in, you've got the invitation You searching? We're in communication We'd like an explanation Oh, come away Past the trees, into the sky I will, I will be here Awaiting Away then Oh, come away, down to the sea Over the ocean, sail with me I will, I will be here Always waiting I'll be waiting for you
