80s track?

[pianoman81]

song in the 80s , may have been deacon blue, pretenders or beautiful south or something,
"good tradition of love and peace, stand by the fireside" ?? more lyrics,

"fathers ignoring you, you still feel safe inside "who sang it?
"was it so long,was it yesterday"
may not be love and peace, may be love and hate- it was a woman singing,she had quite a husky voice - perhaps the pretenders???
thanks :)
