Brooke’s collaboration with Australian Idol winner Damien Leith is calling for peace in the stunning ballad “Sometimes” produced by Lee Bradshaw for Bradshaw Music Productions.
lyrics
Something’s got to give, it’s getting too much
The pain that I feel, enough is enough
I don’t if it’s just me, but I, still remember there was a time
When I knew in my heart it would be alright
Dazed and confused by what I read
And the TV screen’s a battlefield, a world crying out in need
Children eyes robbed of their youth, changed forever by the truth
Not everything’s as safe as it may seem
Sometimes it’s hard to breath, sometimes it’s hard to believe
That on the other side of the world, bombs are falling from the sky
While they’re praying for a better life tomorrow
I wish that I could take the pain away
Politicians, poets and preachers
Your words are plated gold, your true colour start to feature
Open up your eyes and see, lets leave a mark in our history
We hold the key to our future
Sometimes it’s hard to breath, sometimes it’s hard to believe
That on the other side of the world, bombs are falling from the sky
While they’re praying for a better life tomorrow
And time is running out, can’t keep living in the past
Can’t keep running in this race, if we keep coming last
No room to wait, when life is on the line
And every child that cries is another battle lost
What is it gonna take, what’s gonna be the cost
No room to wait, when life is on the line
Sometimes it’s hard to breath, sometimes it’s hard to believe
That on the other side of the world, bombs are falling from the sky
While they’re praying for a better life tomorrow
Sometimes it’s hard to breath, sometimes it’s hard to believe
That on the other side of the world, bombs are falling from the sky
While they’re praying for a better life tomorrow
I wish that I could take the pain away
