I Come And Stand At Every Door Lyrics - Fifth Dimension - The Byrds

I come and stand at every door 

But no one hears my silent tread 

I knock and yet remain unseen 

For I am dead, for I am dead 

I'm only seven although I died 

In Hiroshima long ago 

I'm seven now as I was then 

When children die they do not grow 

My hair was scorched by swirling flame 

My eyes grew dim my eyes grew blind 

Death came and turned my bones to dust 

And that was scattered by the wind 

I need no fruit I need no rice 

I need no sweets nor even bread 

I ask for nothing for myself 

For I am dead, for I am dead 

All that I ask for is for peace 

You fight today, you fight today 

So that the children of this world 

May live and grow and laugh and play
