Out on the blue horizon, the clouds were rollin' in   The ground below was shaking, with the risin' wind   I looked over my shoulder, said goodbye to my home   After today there'd be no turning back, we were on our own      Everyone had taken sides, the battle lines were drawn   We stared into the face of war and waited for the dawn   Everything that we worked for, they took from our hands   We were left with no choice but to stand up and fight for this land      But don't worry, darlin', this will all be over soon   Just remember you will always be my girl   And somehow you will find the strength   To stand up on your own and live in this brave new world      How it all came down to this, no one can really say   Every time we cried out for help, they looked the other way   Now there's no turning back, we have got to be strong   We will travel the hard road to freedom, no matter how long      But don't worry, darlin', this will all be over soon   Just remember you will always be my girl   These are the times we're born into   This is why we're here to live in this brave new world
