Tears Songtext / Lyric

I met a child in Belfast and Derry

the last of a tribe on the American prairie

down under I saw some old native sons,

a Kurdish girl faced by German guns



I saw the tears...






And I saw the tears of the last 100 years

of wars and oppression.

Of wars and oppression

broken dreams, human fears

in their eyes, in their eyes



Immigrant eyes on a German police station

in this land it's a normal situation

escaping from a civil war

to be mistreated by the German law



I saw the tears...
