all the memories have been saved
in a broken envelope
there’s a garden with a grave without a name
all the songs she used to sing with him
all the games he used to play with her
disappeared without a trace covered by a foolish hate
do you see them yearn? do you hear them weep?
do you see them drown in the memories?
can you see them wait for a star to gleam
through the dust, and pain and ruins of Sarajevo?
oh, oh, oh
all the memories have been slaved
in the barrel of a gun
there’s a scar and not a smile in every face
all the kisses that she gave to him
all the dreaming that he built for her
disappeared without a trace buried by a foolish hate
do you see them yearn? do you hear them weep?
do you see them drown in the memories?
can you see them wait for a star to gleam
through the dust, and pain and ruins of Sarajevo?
oh, oh, oh
