I wish they could use trumpets more often, instead of bombs and machine guns. Wishful thinking, I guess.

A heart was touched
A mind was changed
He was not a coward for doing that
He was a wise man who changed his mind, I say of that German Sniper
A song was exchanged for peace in a war
A good trade
I think and always will
