Lyrics

In New York One Fine Summer?s Day
By Bruce McDermott (c)

Verse 1

In New York where I come from, there?s a legend told they say
How disaster struck us all, one fine summer?s day
From out of a blue sky, terror lay
On friendly wings, they stole our innocence away
On friendly wings, they stole our innocence away

2

Were towers torn and rent a sign, it was seared into my mind
My poor scarred skyline, I pray for peace to find
In the smoke and haze I saw an angel
Spreading harmony in place of innocence gone away
Spreading harmony in place of innocence gone away

Chorus

People stood together demanding as one
Is there something Lord, is there something that we have done
Is there something Lord, is there something that we have done

Chorus 2

People stood together demanding as one
Oh when Lord, will we put down our guns
Oh when Lord, will we put down our guns
