Across the heavens to the other side On wings of magic does the little girl ride The little creatures run in from the cold Back to the nest just like the days of old There in the safety of a mother's arms The warmth of ages, far away from harm again Ears ringin' from the battle of fire The tired warrior aims a little higher The black falcon or the little sparrow The healing light or the flash of the barrel No one wins It's a war of man Silver mane flyin' in the wind Down through the planets on the run again No one knows where they're runnin' to But every kind is comin' two by two Out on the delta where the hoof beats pound The daddy's runnin' on the frozen ground Can't smell the poison as it follows him Can't see the gas and machine, it's a war of man Yeah, oh yeah No one wins It's a war of man (Oh, no, no, no one wins) No one wins It's a war of man The windows open and the little girl dreams The sky's her playground as she mounts her steed Across the heavens to the other side On wings of magic does the little girl ride The baby creatures run in from the cold Back to the nest just like the days of old There in the safety of a mother's arms The warmth of ages, away from harm again Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, hey No one wins It's a war of man It's a war of man (No one wins now) It's a war of man It's a war of man
