Whisper A Prayer For The Dying Lyrics - Singles - Coverdale/page

I hear the sound of distant thunder, echo all around 

I see the tragedy of young ones lyin' on the ground 

I see the fathers, sons and daughters, I hear the mothers cryin' 

Nothin' left for me to do, but whisper a prayer for the dyin' 

Ohh, a prayer for the dyin' 

The suffocatin' heat of jungles, and burnin' desert sands 

Where everything reminds you, youre a stranger in a strange land 

The soothin' words of politicians, those bodyguards of lies 

While Guardian Angels waste their time and every mother cries 

Ohh, a prayer for the dyin', dyin', dyin' 

Ohh 

Machine gun, battle cry, you pray to God when the bullets fly 

The bombs fall like black rain 

An all your dreams take you home again 

Nothin' but bad dreams 

You cant read, you cant write 

Youre so scared, you cant sleep at night 

You try to carry the heavy load 

Walkin' down Armageddon road, oh, Armageddon road 

I hear the sound of distant thunder, echo all around 

I see the tragedy of young ones lyin' on the ground 

I see the fathers, sons and daughters, I hear the mothers cryin' 

Nothin' left for me to do, but, whisper a prayer for the dyin' 

Ohh, a prayer for the dyin', dyin' 

Ohh, a prayer for the dyin', baby, baby 

Ohh, a prayer for the dyin', dyin' 

Whisper a prayer for the dyin' 

You cant run, you cant hide 

You cant show what you feel inside 

Youre goin' crazy, goin' insane 

You know youll never be the same again 

No, no 

Whisper a prayer for the dyin', dyin', dyin', dyin', dyin' 

No, no 

Armageddon road, Armageddon road 

Im walkin' down Armageddon road
