When The Children Cry

中学时期一开始接触摇滚乐，就被震慑住了。

有别于中文流行歌曲的风花雪月，80和90年代红极一时的西方摇滚乐团歌词都很有启发性。怀念有White Lion、 Metallica、 Damn Yankees、 Scorpions、 firehouse等乐团陪伴的日子，怀念当时在摇滚乐反叛精神的日子。不说或许你不知道，其实这些看似狂野的摇滚乐团专辑里只要有一两首抒情歌曲，就必 都容易成为经典，叫人百听不厌。例如Metallica 的 Unforgiven，Damn Yankees 的 Where You Going Now， Firehouse 的 Love of a Lifetime， Extreme 的 More Than Word， 当然还有White Lion 的 When The Children Cry。

我非常喜欢这首歌，歌词叫人动容。希望你也喜欢。 

little child

dry your crying eyes

how can I explain

the fear you feel inside

cause you were born

into this evil world

where man is killing man

and no one knows just why

what we have become

just look what we have done

all that we destroyed

you must build again

when the children cry

let them know we tried

cause when the children sing

then the new world begins

little child

you must show the way

to a better day

for all the young

cause you were born

for all the world to see

that we all can live

with love and peace

no more presidents

and all the wars will end

one united world

under god

when the children cry

let them know we tried

cause when the children sing

then the new world begins

what we have become

just look what we have done

all that we destroyed

you must build again

no more presidents

and all the wars will end

one united world

under god

when the children cry

let them know we tried

when the children fight

let them know it ain't right

when the children pray

let them know the way

cause when the children sing

then the new world begins
