lyrics: little bits of truth – we can’t go back there


cd: Little Bits of Truth

track 15: We Can’t Go Back There


A solitary piper Leads the mourners down the streets of Banbridge town
Another grim reminder how easily the peace could be brought down
Oh but not this time, we’re past the point of no return
Thirty seven hundred reasons and a lesson finally learned

Isn’t it amazing Grace, old foes can find some common ground?
On an anguished face, a resolve so many thought could not be found
Standing side by side, they feel that old familiar pain
But the answer’s so much different now, we can’t go back there again

There were times that we were blinded by the hatred in our eyes
But we put it all behind us in a search for better times
And we can’t go back there again, no we can’t go back there
Go back there again

Can you hear the people shout? Our children have to find another way
They face the hope and doubt but resolve to find a path to better days
So they brace themselves, Good Friday’s peace is hard to win
But the voices now in harmony ring out, we can’t go back there again

Chorus
