Tears Songtext

von Across The Border

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...
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...
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

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
In their eyes, in their eyes
In their eyes, in their eyes
In their eyes, in their eyes
