| It’s not the thought of leaving you
|
| That brings the tears to my eyes
|
| I walked alone, I let the days go by
|
| Under your blood red skies
|
| With all the things that make a future
|
| I wrote my name in your past
|
| Brave young lions stand together
|
| But setting suns don’t ever last
|
| Don’t say that I abandon you
|
| Don’t say that I never tried
|
| I walk along like a stateless man
|
| So far from home
|
| Heartland, burning sand shining through
|
| Heartland, don’t let them crucify you
|
| When all the wars are over
|
| And all the words have turned to sand
|
| You will live forever
|
| A silent wonderland
|
| Don’t say that I abandon you
|
| Don’t say that I never cried
|
| I walk along like a stateless man
|
| So far from home
|
| Heartland, burning sand shining through
|
| Heartland, understand I love you
|
| Heartland, burning sand shining through
|
| Heartland, don’t let them crucify you
|
| Heartland, I love you
|
| Heartland, heartland |
