Vrbana Bridge

They stood by the window
And watched the old chrurch
Burn for the second time
The light from the fire
Made her glow like an angel
As she pulled him down and smiled
And they lay on the bed
There were shouts all around
They could shut the whole war out
With the squeak of the springs
And tomorrow's dreams
And the beating of their hearts

He would lay down his arms for her
She would forgive his brother's crime
The would do anything to make it past Vrbana Bridge

Well he looked up to Jesus
And she looked to the east
Where the sun was soon to rise
She asked for Allah's blessings
To keep them both alive
They had friends in high places
Who could do them a favor
Turn a blind eye
They'd seen so much hate and death every day
"Let's just let those two walk by"

They would lay down their arms for her
They would forgive his brother's crime
Just for one moment they would let them pass
Vrbana Bridge

Through a crack in the wall
Of a sandbagged building
The soldier saw them fall
He said "If love was their only armor
Well it did no good at all"
They lay for six days
In a final embrace
The shut the whole war out
The soldier blames the other side
But even he has doubts

He would lay down his arms for her
He would forgive his brother's crime
He would lay down his arms
To let them pass Vrbana
He would lay down his arms for her
She would forgive his brother's crime
Only one moment they would let them pass
Vrbana Bridge
