I Won't Close My Eyes [Remix] Songtext
von UB40

Ohh, ohh, yeah
I won′t close my eyes
Do the sufferers fly?
In a world full of darkness, I won't turn off my light
Our cries for justice are shots in the dark
But our strength′s in our bite, and not in our bark
It's time to stand and shout it out loud
And the louder we scream, the sweeter the sound
Hey
I won't close my eyes, when I know that I am right
When I′m drowning in your tears, I won′t turn off my light
We're shown no respect, but that can′t break our pride


And our backs to the wall, we won't run and we won′t hide
It's time to stand, face the oncoming crowd
Because the louder we scream, the sweeter the sound
I won′t close my eyes, when the future don't look bright
Though the road seems too long, I won't turn off my light
Hey
In a world full of darkness, I won′t turn off my light
Hey, hey
I won′t turn off my light
Ohh
Ohh
I won't turn off my light
