"Tied"

(written by Julia Fordham/Irwin Levine/Russell Brown)

Tie a yellow ribbon round your heart
Counted every moment we're apart
It's been five long years
Since you've been here
Tie a yellow ribbon

Beyond the realm of dignity
Beyond imagination, please forgive me
How long, how long, how long, how long will it be?
It's a tragedy

Tie a yellow ribbon round your heart
Counted every moment we're apart
It's been five long years
Since you've been here
Tie a yellow ribbon

What happened to humanity?
There is no understanding such insanity
Hold on, hold on, hold on please if you can
In that troubled land

Tie a yellow ribbon round your heart
Counted every moment we're apart
It's been five long years
Since you've been here
Tie a yellow ribbon
