linda allen – a small vase of flowers lyrics
a small vase of flowers, the sun through the window
walls of white plaster, a small picture frame
still i can see it – my mind’s eye can see it
my harbor, my center, my family, my name
how fragile a thing is a small vase of flowers
walls of white plaster, how quickly they fall
pictures will crumble and burn in a whisper
my home and my life can mean nothing at all
high in the heavens a young man was watching
his eyes on a target his soul could not see
his mind on an enemy – faceless and nameless
his hands pushed the trigger – the target was me
i wander the streets of this city i once loved
i search through the rubble which once was my home
i search for my neighbors, my children, my life
but nothing is left, not a stone stands on stone
how fragile a thing is a small vase of flowers
how luscious my garden, how sweet was the fruit
but the bombs fell like rain ’til the screams turned to silence
and i stand here weeping, a tree without roots
a small vase of flowers, the sun through the window
walls of white plaster, a small picture frame
still i can see it, my mind’s eye can see it
my harbor, my center, my family, my name
