Lyrics

Enola gay, you should have stayed at home yesterday Aha words can't describe the feeling and the way you lied These games you play, they're gonna end it more than tears someday Aha enola gay, it shouldn't ever have to end this way It's 8:15, and that's the time that it's always been We got your message on the radio, conditions normal and you're coming home Enola gay, is mother proud of little boy today Aha this kiss you give, it's never ever gonna fade away Enola gay, it shouldn't ever have to end this way Aha enola gay, it shouldn't fade in our dreams away It's 8:15, and that's the time that it's always been We got your message on the radio, conditions normal and you're coming home Enola gay, is mother proud of little boy today Aha this kiss you give, it's never ever gonna fade away
