Lyrics:
Another day of sunshine in my fortress
A little girl who’s frightened turns to me
and she says
“they’ve waged a war they’ re coming,
they’ll breach the walls they'll find me
is this the end or else what could it be?”
and I say
“we stand no chance divided
just take my hand, we’ll fight it
you must embrace the pain as the fuel for your journey”
A wound’s a memory of your private battle
and every scar’s a story to be told
when she said
“they’ve waged a war they’ re coming,
they’ll breach the walls they'll find me
is this the end or else what could it be?”
and I said
“we stand no chance divided
just take my hand, we’ll fight it
you must embrace the pain as the fuel for your journey”
"The sound of raging thunder
broke the silence in the summer sky
and with the clouds descending wildly,
I felt the rain pouring over my eyes
I’ve seen a quiet dove that’s been soaring
beneath the timeless gate of light,
it holds a message from an ancient healer
that has been written on the ribbon of Life.”
Another day of sunshine in my fortress
The little girl has grown, she’ s by my side.
now I say
“they’ve waged a war they’ re coming,
they’ll breach the walls they'll find me
is this the end or else what could it be?”
and she says
“we’ll stand beside each other
we’ll make our children prouder,
embrace the sun in the fields of our journey
Its our journey.”
