Kyiv Children's Hospital

There's a place in every town where the light don't fade away A shelter for the innocent where doctors work and heal But in the heart of a country worn and torn by the fight Evil shadows cross the moon; it dims the children's light There's a place in every town where the light don't fade away A shelter for the innocent where doctors work and heal But in the heart of a country worn and torn by the fight Evil shadows cross the moon; it dims the children's light A nurse holds a trembling hand whispers it'll be alright But the walls they keep shaking echoing the night The world stands still watching as lives are torn apart In a city once so full of dreams now clinging to its heart Who would harm a place of hope where our youngest learn to smile? Innocence should never suffer in a world so full of guile No cause accepts this slaughter as we hold each other tight Children's laughter should be sacred and shielded from the fight Mothers clutch their babies close as sirens scream and cry Rockets don't see the beauty in the sparkle of their eyes But love stands strong and defiant in the middle of the fray For every night that's darkest there's a promise of the day We raise our voices louder for the ones who cannot speak In the face of such crime it's the innocent we seek United in our quest to keep the hope alive and bold Their laughter is our banner a worth more than gold Who would harm a place of hope where our youngest learn to smile? Innocence should never suffer in a world so full of guile No cause accepts this slaughter as we hold each other tight Children's laughter should be sacred and shielded from the fight
