Answers never clear again
This turning of the page
This turn look away

There I took a left turning
Before I came of age
I agreed to let it out
I agreed to let it go
I agreed to turn around
I agreed to turn my face away

Danger is the most important
Fear youll ever know
The transporting of refugees
The silent night is cold

And all the time
We looked around
As we were never told

But we agreed to let it out
We agreed to let it go
We agreed to turn our backs
We agreed to turn our face away, away

Thousands to the million
Sisters, grandmothers and more
Its not the feast we throw away
Its the way we close the door

Their silence deafens every sound
We try just to ignore
To waste their future freedom
Well regret forever more

I believe in
I believe in
These are the days that we will talk about
I believe in
I believe in
One understanding what is real

If we are one
Then we are refugees
We are the prisoners of our own design
If we are one
Seen through the eyes of a child
We will perpetuate this song of love
If we are one
Seen through the eyes of a child
We will perpetuate this song of love
If we are one
Seen through the eyes of a child
We will perpetuate this song
Perpetuate this song of love

Now we build the bridges
That we walk upon together
At the last count many lonely souls
The sadness always kills

Each breaking point is waiting
For the promise to fulfill

When we agree to turn the page
When we agree to help them free
When we agree to let it out
When we agree to let it shine
When we agree to let it run
When we agree to let it change our lives

I believe in, our lives
I believe in, our lives
These are the days we will talk about

When we are one
Seen through the eyes of child
We will perpetuate this song of love

When we are one
Seen through the eyes of child
We will perpetuate this song of love
Song of love

Yeah, yeah, perpetuate this song of love

Seeing through the eyes of child
Seeing through the eyes of child
