Dream Awake

I feel the northern pain As the drought comes again Will I be wasting my time if I pray? Lord, where's the wetting rain? We're leaving, departing Forsaking our only home Wandering, believing On creed, faith and hope And for the childhood I will never ever have The desert of my life where my heart was left And for the childhood I will never ever live This desert where my road now begins Why can't my prayers Now heal this sore? While we're waiting We suffer even more Holy Father, shall you keep Crowning us with thorns? Can't you see my mother's tears A spear in my heart? I know fire burns, I feel on my face When night goes, with sun comes My disgrace No seas are left, all rivers dried Just sand in my eyes Over a footpath of dry leaves We walk and we stand Through dust and wind Lord, this oasis is dead Over the footprints and Over the scars of this land Barren fields and the scourge of man I know fire burns, I feel on my face When night goes, with sun comes My disgrace No seas are left, all rivers dried Just sand in my eyes Oh, I dreamed that was raining In a blue and vivid sky painting When I wake from my mirage I starve but I wait Oh, when I dream always rains Rain washing my sorrow, moistening my face Will I wake from my mirage And starve once again? Morpheus, please tell me If my prayer is in vain How long we'll walk Until we get faint? Hunger striking Sun burning my faith In my mother's arms Will I be once again? I know fire burns, I feel on my face I know I have to go, I know this is my fate (faaaate) When night goes, with sun comes My disgrace No seas are left, all rivers dried When the sand comes There's blood in my eyes Without the falling of the rain We have nowhere to go The only place that we may rest Is the place to rest our souls Hummmm-hummmm Hummmm-hummmm Hummmm-hummmm Hummmm-hummm-whoaaa Need to reach for the stars So, God, please, take me that far Above the sky my tears will fly To wet the land and all the scars We now dream awake (ah-ah-ahhhh-ahhhh) We now dream awake (ah-ah-ahhhh-ahhhh) We now dream awake (haaaaa-ahhhhh) We now dream awake (ah-ah-ahhhh-ahhhh) We now dream awake (hoooo-ohhhh) We now dream awake (hoooo-ah-ah-ahhhh) We now dream awake
