Flag In The Ground |
| Leaving my life behind |
| My young love and the unborn |
| Only have a lock of her hair |
| And burning love inside |
| After forty work-filled days and sleepless nights |
| The sails are lit by the lights of Boston |
| And here we go… off the ship! |
| Towards the adventure |
| The one to define our lives |
| Daily grind and a tiny room |
| «I got here safe, Love |
| I have an address, until spring |
| Then I shall race for the land |
| Hope to hear from you soon…» |
| (Her letter reads…) |
| «Please let me know everything’s all right |
| Thinking about you, though you’re out of sight |
| Every night, when I’m turning in, my tears find me |
| Please hurry, dear, come back and rescue me…» |
| «Now that I have made the dollars we need for the dream |
| The best horse I’ve ever seen, a carriage and everything I need |
| I will make my way to the great unknown |
| Every moment, I wish you were here with me now…» |
| No, I’m not a stranger among the people in here |
| Yet I have never felt so alone |
| At high noon, sound will boom |
| And I will start racing for the land we can call home |
| «I stuck my flag in the ground, screaming and shouting |
| I’ve never felt so proud, Love |
| We are free from eternal serfdom |
| I’m gonna bring you home, my light!» |
| Nine, eight, seven, six, counting the days… SOLO! |
| Five, four, three, two, together forever! |
| SOLO! |
| I made my way into the great unknown |
| Land by the river and a new-built home |
| I am the land and the land is me |
| Freedom is everything and we are free |
| I made my way into the great unknown |
| Land by the river and a new-built home |
| Every night, when I’m looking at the full moon rising |
| I hold you and know that we are free! |
