[Verse 1]
I can't believe the news today
Oh, I can't close my eyes and make it go away

[Interlude]
How long? How long must we sing this song?
How long? How long?

Tonight, we can be as one
Tonight

[Verse 2]
Broken bottles under children's feet
And bodies strewn across the dead-end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall

[Chorus]
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

[Verse 3]
And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me, who has won?
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart
[Chorus]
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

[Interlude]
How long? How long must we sing this song?
How long?
How long?

[Verse 4]
And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and T.V., reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink, while tomorrow they die, yeah

[Bridge]
I wipe the tears from your eyes
I wipe your tears away
(Tonight, tonight)
I wipe your tears away
(Tonight, tonight)
I wipe your tears away
I wipe your bloodshot eyes
(Tonight, tonight)

[Chorus]
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
(The real battle just begun)
Sunday, bloody Sunday
(To claim the victory Jesus won on)
[Outro]
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
