I can't believe the news today
I can't close my eyes and make it go away

|How long?
|How long must we sing this song?
|How long, how long?
|Cause tonight we can be as one
|Tonight

Broken bottles under children's feet
And bodies strewn across a dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up
Against the wall!

* Sunday, bloody sunday (2 x)
And the battle's just begun
There's many lost
But tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart
* Sunday, bloody sunday (twice)

|How long
|How long must we sing this song?
|How long, how long?
|Cause tonight we can be as one
|Tonight

* Tonight (4 x)

Wipe the tears of your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
Wipe bloodshot eyes

* Sunday, bloody sunday (6 x)
And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV is reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die
The real battle just begun
To claim the victory Jesus won
On a sunday, bloody sunday
* Sunday, bloody sunday (5 x)
