Can there be a shining in the shadows,
or may we see the flicker of a spark
Is there calm amid the storm and madness,
must we shelter ever in the dark
Not a bird on the wing,
nor a song they could sing
for the loved ones we see no more,
their suffering and pain
But the sounds far and near
in the air plain and clear,
are the voices forever singing
'love lives again'
For now a new day wakes the dawn,
spreading its light across the sky,
when all misery and sadness will pass away
For then we'll find the harmony
stirring our hearts across the land
Through the sighing and the weeping
we find our way – our way back home
In our mourning, can we hold together?
How can we face a future all alone?
For the hope we hold amid the crying
is the dream we find a way back home
Not a bird on the wing,
nor a song they could sing
for the loved ones we see no more,
their suffering and pain
But the sounds far and near
in the air plain and clear,
are the voices forever singing
'love lives again'
For now a new day wakes the dawn,
spreading its light across the sky,
when all misery and sadness will pass away
For then we'll find the harmony
stirring our hearts across the land
Through the sighing and the weeping
we find our way – our way back home
we find our way, back home
