We are not forgotten.
Listen to my heart, look
into my eyes.
I have seen the stars
falling from the skies.
Listen to my fears,
yours will lift and fly.
Let me show you where,
I have touched the air.
Stories from the
past, each as true as mine.
We can speak at last
through the sands of time.
We are
not forgotten anymore.
These are things
I know, trampled fields of snow
Sheets of falling
rain, hope that concurs pain.
Souls that call again
in my memory.
Through the veils
of light falling on the sea.
Letters wrapped in
love, lips pressed in my dreams.
Holy thoughts and
brave, men who laugh and weep
We are
not forgotten anymore.
I am the
face on the wall,
Spirit of hope ever
rising
I am the prayer in
your heart for peace.
Nothing can protects
us like a wall.
From our foes and
our fears.
Nothing can be broken
like a wall.
With our hopes and
our tears
We
learned all too well, hard as you may try.
There are days you
win, there are days you die.
Having seen the war,
we can speak of peace.
How we prayed all
night for the dawn's release.
Did we all come home,
did we turn the page?
There are walls of
joy, there are walls of rage.
Walls at which you
weep, walls on which you dance
Walls made of regret,
walls you made by chance.
Walls that break
you heart, walls through which you can see.
Walls made in your
mind, walls that set you free.
We
are not forgotten anymore.
I am the face on
the wall,
Spirit of hope ever
rising
I am the prayer in
your heart for peace.
