Words & Music by Tony Harris

You hold me with your Arms

You threaten me with harm

You demand I accept your way

Will you blind me with a smile?

Treat me to your bile?

Claim I choose this fate?

Underneath the stars

Another takes my place

Underneath the stars

We see your disgrace

All that I wanted

Was truth and dignity

All that I fought for

Was the right to be free

And to bring an end to

Violence and it's tyranny...

And your cruelty

The years will pass us by

The tears of love will cry

Will you understand why?

Your deeds will be recalled

Your deeds will be appalled

But you don't care at all

Somewhere far and near

Another takes my place

Somewhere far and near

We see your disgrace

All that I wanted

Was truth and dignity

All that I fought for

Was the right to be free

And bring an end to

Tyrants and their company

And their cruelty

Underneath the stars

Another takes my place

Underneath the stars

We see your disgrace

All that I wanted

Was truth and liberty

All that I fought for

Was respect and dignity

So bring an end to

Violence and it's tyranny

And it's cruelty
