girl from lebanon

it's time to break out from the cage

it's time to change your ways

it's time to find those

shattered dreams

that vanished in the haze

it's time to lose those

concrete shoes

they held you down too long 'cause

trouble days have come and gone

and the night has just begun

another dawn is yet to come

carry on my little one

girl from lebanon

it's time to meet the changes

they come from all around

it's time for you to realize

freedom has been found

it's time to meet the future

and forget about the past

it's time to make a good thing last

and the night has just begun

another dawn is yet to come

carry on my little one

girl from lebanon

it's time to cut the barbwire

and walk out on the street

it's time that we stayed

up all night

and lose all kinds of sleep

it's time to wear those bright

blue jeans

and let your hair hang down

the word of peace is goin' 'round
