Lyrics by Alice Donatelli

I"ll never forget that morning,
in April of 95,
the city streets were busy,
folks were happy to be alive,
then something terrible happened,
that almost broke my heart,
someone planted a bomb,
and blew that building apart.

we need love and understanding,
we must take back our pride,
it could have been us,
the day that Oklahoma city died.

we have to stop the violence,
it's getting out of hand,
innocent people suffer,
we have to take a stand,
we have to shout from the roof tops,
to let everybody know,
hatered's not the answer,
it's not the way to go.

we need love and understanding,
and we must take back our pride,
it could have been us,
the day that Oklahoma died.

we need love and understanding,
and we must take back our pride,
it could have been us,
the day that Oklahoma died.

we need love and understanding,
and we must take back our pride,
it could have been us,
the day that Oklahoma city died.

we need love and understanding,
and we must take back our pride,
it could have been us,
the day that Oklahoma city died.
