I don't
know
what makes a man or a woman
even think that terror is an evil
How could anyone have plans
that would guarantee the death of
thousands of people?
And yet as I look back
now on what happened
Like the calls from those in planes
They were trapped in
whatever they felt that day
I love you,
that was all they wanted to say
Call this a view like naive
But if I don't threaten your life,
why would you deplore me?
Just because I might believe
In a different set of values
You think it unholy
What you must remember in
What they were fa cing
Many feared the worst in cause
They were making
And yet as you shone that day
I love you
That was all they wanted to say
It's a fine line you cross
when you talk of a loss
In terms of its market share
There are paintings of millions gone
Who even cares?
Who'd even dare?
Even if your faith in God
is now dwindling
Think of those who called out
Trapped inside those buildings
Knowing what before them lay
I love you
That was all they wanted to say
Nobody I think who's been
Caught up in an act of terror
Needs to be reminded
What you can't envisage seeing
It's for some blurry reason
They are so delighted
Never realized before,
until this hour
Words however much abused,
have so much power
Think of those who call that day
I love you, I love you, I love you,
I love you, I love you
That was all they
wanted to say
