Have I seen the shapes
Of man and woman more ornate
Gentle ones and kind
As well as bleak and painful ones
We see
Our journey through decades
The horrors of the world
Are always the blues in our heads
Days seem passing by
So to notice and not to forget
Shadows stay behind
The ones we were content to be slaves to
Today nothing is left
But our bleached and battered skin and bones
Now our hearts are light
Where our souls are so longing to be
Step by step we go
The road is all that's fate in our hands
Our way to the promised land
We seek to reach it soon
The land where we can linger after all
A place to just call home
Have I seen a boy
His young hands are good for hard work
To be burnt is life
He's not the one who pulls the strings
But see
Our journey far away
We beg for freedom
But far away is all we receive
Too weak to fight against
But too strong to just accept without hate
Days gone long ago
I turn my eyes to better dreams
We don't fear the dark
Cause we want to achieve the light
From now on it's no more
Our light will be our guide
Now our hearts are light
And our souls don't need to long anymore
Our way to the promised land
We seek to reach it soon
The land where we can linger after all
A place to just call home
Our way to the promised land
We seek to reach it soon
The land where we can linger after all
A place to just call home
