Bilingual
I signed aboard some sea ships
Just to see the ocean roll
I flew the clouds in airplanes
Just to satisfy my soul
Up in that big blue heaven
My hopes can freely roam
I will build my sun-dried brick wall
Where my soul can feel at home
My angel, my darling
When that atom bomb does come
Let me be your pillow
While this world's on fire
Wildfire will run crawling
While the walls will come falling
Lay your weary head down
While the world's on fire
When the flames go creeping
When the smoke plume is leaping
We'll play like we're sleeping
When the world's on fire
While the skies they are clearing
We'll rise up dreaming
Build our cities from the ashes
Where the world was on fire
My angel, my darling
When that atom bomb does come
Let me be your pillow
While this world's on fire
