Roger Waters - Each Small Candle Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Not the torturer will scare me
  • Nor the body's final fall
  • Nor the barrels of death's rifles
  • Nor the shadows on the wall
  • Nor the night when to the ground
  • The last dim star of pain, is held
  • But the blind indifference
  • Of a merciless unfeeling world
  • Lying in the burnt out shell
  • Of some Albanian farm
  • An old Babushka
  • Holds a crying baby in her arms
  • A soldier from the other side
  • A man of heart and pride
  • Breaks ranks, lays down his rifle
  • And kneels by her side
  • He binds her wounds
  • He gives her food
  • And calms the crying child
  • She gives him absolution then
  • Across the great divide
  • He picks his way back through the broken
  • China of her life
  • And there at the kerb
  • The samaritan Serb turns..
  • Turns and waves.. goodbye
  • And each small candle
  • Lights a corner of the dark

    • Report error in lyric
