I live in this country now    I’m called by this name    I speak this language    It’s not quite the same    For no other reason    Than this it’s my home    And the places I used to be   Far from are gone       You’ve travelled this long    You just have to go on    Don’t even look back to see    How far you’ve come    Though your body is bending    Under the load    There is nowhere to stop    Anywhere on this road       My heart is breaking    I cannot sleep    I love a man    Who’s afraid of me    He believes if he doesn’t    Stand guard with a knife    I’ll make him my slave    For the rest of his life       I love this hour    When the tide is just turning    There will be an end    To the longing and yearning    If i can stand up    To angels and men    I’ll never get swallowed    In darkness again       You’ve travelled this long    You just have to go on    Don’t even look back to see    How far you’ve come    Though your body is bending    Under the load    There is nowhere to stop    Anywhere on this road
