lyrics

Tomorrow Without Guns

I don’t believe in somewhere over rainbows
Shangri-La’s a place I will never see
I just believe that earth could be a heaven
If our children could someday play free.

I don’t believe that Jesus owned a rifle
I believe he said the meek shall own the earth
And those that say that guns were made for owning
Shouldn’t judge the world by a bullet’s worth.

Chorus
I would have hours that move like a glitter of dancers
Far from the guns that flash & boom
I would have hours that move like a glitter of dancers
Not live our lives under a killing moon
I would have hours that move like a glitter of dancers
Far from the guns that flash & boom
I would have hours that move like a glitter of dancer
May that day come one day soon.

It takes more than guns to make a nation
It takes more than prayers to move a heart
If we could just take guns out of the cities
Then maybe then peace could make a start.

I don’t believe in Brigadoon or Eden
I just believe in a future for our young
I don’t believe in yesterday’s of hatred
I just believe in tomorrow without guns
No, I don’t believe in yesterdays of hatred
I just believe in tomorrow without guns.

Chorus

I don’t believe in hating other people
But I don’t believe in the words of the NRA
I just believe in no guns in the valley
After Shane has gone away.

I don’t believe in somewhere over rainbows
Just a kinder world under a gentle sun
I don’t believe in the yesterday’s of hatred
I just believe in tomorrow without guns
No, I don’t believe in yesterday’s of hatred
I just believe in tomorrow without gun
No, I don’t believe in yesterday’s of hatred
I just believe in tomorrow without guns.
