When Cathedrals Were White

The world goes to war, but who is it for

Can we sleep in our beds at night

And remembr the pain

And not want to regain

When cathedrals were white

You know I still think of you

And all we went through

But the years have now faded the light

Is your love still the same

As it was on that day

When cathedrals were white

All those onward Christian soldiers

Fighting onward Christian wars

Are you suprised when you discover

Just what they're fighting for ?

We run through the rain

And we get through the pain

And we teach all our kids wrong from right

But can we ever say that we love like the day

When cathedrals were white

All those leaders and cheaters

Disguise their deeds with a smile

So nonchalant, as they turn to tell you

All your thoughts are on file

And who is to blame that we've come to this day

When no one remembers what it was like

Back when honesty reigned, when we loved not for gain

When cathedrals were white

When cathedrals were white
