Take my hand now
I will lead you far away
From our homeland
To a place we shall not stay
But for moments
Until your crying fades
And the haunting
Of all those who paid
Hold your mother's memory
She was always there for you
But now she's gone
The longest day, will it ever end
How long can men behave this way
The longest day has taken our loves
How long can wars remain
The morning sun rose
As it did like yesterday
A day like others
Until the bombs fell our way
My son and wife died
And left our small hometown in flames
There was no reason
To be hit by death's reign
Hold your mother's memory
She was always there for you
But now she's gone
The longest day, will it ever end
How long can men behave this way
The longest day has taken our loves
How long can wars remain
I held your hand
As you took your last breath
I could not save you
Nor my son from death
The longest day, will it ever end
How long can men behave this way
The longest day has taken our loves
How long can wars remain
The longest day, will it ever end
How long can men behave this way
The longest day has ruined our lives
Why do the wars remain
