I've seen what was war, so long The winds and scars, so long The mansions of mud, the wounds and the blood Seen the dying of all that was good, so long See the world on the grave, so long As a tree of the people, so long See the world on the grave, so long Millions of believers, so long Yet hope lives in me, so long For it's love that I see, so long The courage and strength of a young man's smile The faith that is in a little child, so long Bin auf meinem Weg, schon so lang Verschlagen und töt, schon so lang Bin müde und blöd, in der Zügeln ans Meer Bin auf meinem Weg, ohne Wiederkehr, schon so lang I've been on the road, so long Been tired and broke, so long I've been to the south, where the winds they were warm Travelling the road of no return, so long So long So long So long So long So long
