Minds Locked Shut

It happened on a Sunday afternoon
On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon
On a perfect day for walking
There was gunshots, stones and bullets
On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon
There was chaos, panic and death
Disbelief upon the faces
Fear and bewilderment
The seconds seemed so long
They're firing bullets at us
It was not supposed to be like this
Awesome to behold

And then our minds locked shut
And then our minds locked shut
And then our minds locked shut
And then our minds locked shut

And there remains ..

Jackie Duddy and Willie Nash
Gerry Donaghy, Willy McKinney
Gerard McKinney and Jim Wray
Johnny Johnston, Barney McGuigan
Paddy Doherty, Kevin McIlhenny
John Young, Mickey Kelly
Hugh Gilmore, Micheal McDaid
Let us remember ..

It happened on a Sunday afternoon
On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon
On a perfect day for walking
