I've Told you so, mother dear
That the World is not something to fear
I'd ran through the green
And across the blue
To somewhere, I'm sure you don't know
Oh sweetheart, it's scary out there
Guns and wrongs
War and Cannons
It's just beauty, drowned with violence
Dear mother, are you a coward?
Why do you fear the earth
Why can't you open the door and step forward
....into a whole new world
There's nothing to get hurt
Oh my dear child, I'll let you go
At least when you see you'll know
I've tried to warn you
And when you're back I'll say
I told you so.
