YAADEIN movie - Aye Dil Dil Ki Duniya Mein lyrics
You gotta admit life magazine made 1968 look great
My father said it suckedeverybody died.
All the troops you couldn’t saveno one knew how to be brave
He said sometimes you were afraid to turn your radio on.
It was enough to make you quit that peacenick scene.
Well I heard about leadersyeah I hear they’re no longer around
Cause peace was abandonedand bravery hanged in his town.
And they passed down a sentence
For building on the beauty of some dream.
All my heroes are deadI got them in my headsaying
Never againnever a warno more fighting.
So I’ll stay true to themand they’ll come home again
I’ll carry the lightfollow the dreamI’ll remember.
The ’68 convention was a singing the times they are a-changing
Well I guess they a-changed back.
Oh I miss those peaceful folklove and humor when they spokehey
Phil ochs you still sound greatshould’ve stuck around to hear it.
They say that compact disc makes songs come true.
But phil I never expected that I’d miss you like a friend
Cause I never expected that we would be marching again.
And the soldiers of peace would tumble from this life as in a war.
All my heroes are deadand all the books I read
Said "this is greedthis is wrongfight your war at home".
So I’ll stay true to themand they’ll come home again
I’ll carry the lightfollow the dreamI’ll remember.
So back to the present passionromanceloveor simply put a lack thereof.
Shall we go on?
I don’t take it personallyit’s our post-modern history
You know since nixon was impeached it’s just been hard to commit
So we cast our allegance left and right.
But I always believed that our souls would come through.
So I never expected that you’d take her home with you.
And I never detectedhow hardened and not sorry you could be.
Don’t you know?
All our heroes are deadwe got ourselves instead.
And oh my friendall your liesthey won’t do you.
You gotta stay true to themand they’ll come home again
I miss them tooI miss them tooyou know I miss them
More than I love you.
