He thought he'd be like the police
And who will have won
When the soldiers have gone?
Is where the snipers sometimes hide
And sharing meant no shame
To beat the fear that she might die
He scans the world outside
The Lebanon
But now he finds he is at war
And who will have won
Of rockets flying from nearby
He left his home the week before
And who will have won
Weren't we supposed to keep the peace
It can't be true
It can't be true
When the soldiers have gone?
When the soldiers have gone?
From the Lebanon, the Lebanon
And scared, she clings onto her dreams
Before he leaves the camp he stops
From the Lebanon, the Lebanon
From the Lebanon
She is awakened by the screams
And where there used to be some shops
I must be dreaming
I must be dreaming
The life was cheap on bread and wine
The Lebanon, from the Lebanon
