With fear in the eyes
and ragged shoes
The escape from your homeland
continues.
You dream to be safe
and not forced to hide
You're going through Europe
with tired strides
We can't understand
the things that you have seen
The painful goodbyes, the tears
and the screams
You do what you must
your child is in your arms
Your tired body tries to
keep him warm
The road seems endless
the rain is falling down
Your heart beats fast remembering
your burning town
You are fleeing across the sea
to a fate unknown
You hold your baby
while the tears they burn
But you do what you must
There is one goal so profound
To set down your childs feet
on safe ground
Going to safe ground
Going to safe ground
