Ukraine
Your grandmothers are in the kitchen
Your grandfathers are tending their gardens
Your children are on the play ground
Your parents are at their jobs
Ukraine

Ukraine
Ukraine
Bullets can tear flesh
Missiles buzz through the sky
The fires come so close
Nobody wants to die
Ukraine
Ukraine
We watch on our television
We are filled with such indecision
We go to the store to buy our eggs
Thank God that we are far away from
Ukraine
Are we far away from Ukraine?
We’re not so far away from Ukraine…
We’re not so far away from Ukraine…
From Ukraine….

You handled this difficult, pressing question well. As you sing, "We’re not so far away from Ukraine..."
I was hesitant to listen, but I'm glad I did, as you sing with care in your voice, and in the guitar playing. Thank you for writing this one.
May God continue to answer prayers from people the world over, to protect Ukrainians and give them all they need to resist. (I lived in Kyiv for nearly two years.)

should we have skin in this game or wander home with our eggs - important question - brilliant song

This is very touching. The chord loop and lovely gentle acoustic guitar accompaniment goes so well together. Your voice is very relaxing too, even though the subject is difficult. Very well done :-)

Glad to see somebody addressing the elephant in the room. Been trying to figure out how to do that myself.
Nice job.
