There in the safety of a mother's arms
No one wins
But every kind is comin' two by two
Back to the nest just like the days of old
No one wins
No one wins
Across the Heavens to the other side
Down through the planets on the run again
It's a war of man
Silver mane flyin' in the wind
No one knows where they're runnin' to
The baby creatures run in from the cold
Out on the delta where the hoof beats pound
On wings of magic does the little girl ride
The tired warrior aims a little higher
It's a war of man
The black falcon or the little sparrow
The warmth of ages, far away from harm again
No one wins
It's a war of man
No one wins
It's a war of man
The sky's her playground as she mounts her steed
It's a war of man
The windows open and the little girl dreams
There in the safety of a mother's arms
No one wins
No one wins
The daddy's runnin' on the frozen ground
The warmth of ages, far away from harm again
Ears ringin' from the battle of fire
The healing light or the flash of the barrel
Can't smell the poison as it follows him
It's a war of man
Can't see the gas and machines, it's a war of man
No one wins
