lirik lagu john gorka - let them in
“let them in was made into song by john gorka from a
poem found in a hospital in the philippines during
world war ii. the nurse that found the poem kept it all
these years until the recent war brought out all the
memorabilia. luckily, her daughter sent a copy to john”
let them in, peter
they are very tired
give them couches where the angels sleep
and light those fires
let them wake whole again
to brand new dawns
fired by the sun not wartime’s
bl–dy guns
may their peace be deep
remember where the broken bodies lie
god knows how young they were
to have to die
god knows how young they were
to have to die
so give them things they like
let them make some noise
give dance hall bands not golden harps
to these our boys
and let them love, peter
for they’ve had no time
they should have trees and bird songs
and hills to climb
the taste of summer in a ripened pear
and girls sweet as meadow wind
with flowing hair
and tell them how they are missed
but say not to fear
it’s gonna be alright
with us down here
let them in, peter
let them in, peter
let them in, peter
