The Jacksons - Be Not Always lyrics
[The Jacksons - Be Not Always lyrics]
Always be not always
And if always bow our heads in shame
Always please be not always
And if always bow our heads in blame
'Cause time has made promises just promises
Faces did you see their faces?
Did they touch you? Have you felt such pain?
To have nothing to dream something
Then lose hoping is not life but lame?
But time has made promises just promises
Mothers cry, babies die helplessly in arms
While rockets fly and research lies
In progress to become
But what of men of flesh and blood?
We turn our backs on life
How can we claim to stand for peace
When the race is armed in strife
Destroying life?
Always please be not always
But if always bow our heads in shame
Always please, please be not always
'Cause if always bow our heads in blame
'Cause time, time, has made promises
Death promises
And if always bow our heads in shame
Always please be not always
And if always bow our heads in blame
'Cause time has made promises just promises
Faces did you see their faces?
Did they touch you? Have you felt such pain?
To have nothing to dream something
Then lose hoping is not life but lame?
But time has made promises just promises
Mothers cry, babies die helplessly in arms
While rockets fly and research lies
In progress to become
But what of men of flesh and blood?
We turn our backs on life
How can we claim to stand for peace
When the race is armed in strife
Destroying life?
Always please be not always
But if always bow our heads in shame
Always please, please be not always
'Cause if always bow our heads in blame
'Cause time, time, has made promises
Death promises
