TEARS IN OKLAHOMA
April 19, 1995
Tears from the heart
Fell on this April day;
For the dead and wounded
In bombed out ruins they lay.
The tears fell like
Mighty torrents of rain;
For their loved ones
All broken in pain.
Tears for the children
Lost and injured here;
For the parents and families
Loved so very dear.
Tears of fear and sorrow,
Tears of compassion and hate;
And all the living wonder who,
Perpetrated this horrible fate?
Cheers for the mighty
Heroes and braves;
Who search night and day,
To find and to save.
Will time ever mend
All the heartache here;
And wipe away this
River of tears....

Tears from the heart
Fell on this May day;
For the dead and wounded
In blown down ruins they lay.
The tears fell like
Mighty torrents of rain;
For their loved ones
All broken in pain.
Tears for the children
Lost and injured here;
For the parents and families
Loved so very dear.
Tears of fear and sorrow,
Tears of compassion and hate,
And all the living wonder why,
Nature perpetrated this horrible fate?
Cheers for the mighty
Heroes and braves;
Who search night and day,
To find and to save.
Will time ever mend
All the heartache here;
And wipe away this
River of tears....
