Twelve years ago and I can still clearly remember

That bright day in the middle of december

A world away, couldn't take my mind off her

But now I wait high in the sky right above her

From this glorious height

I gazed with delight

As the clouds that covered her like a shroud

Parted to reveal the sight

Chorus

And then I saw her standing there

Bright in the morning sun

I could only stare

In silent admiration

Allyuh I don't know

Why dis' land does have me so

Oh, I long to be

Back home by my Trinity

I can still recall the moment I descended

I thought that the years of my exile had ended

Face wet with tears, I ran to embrace her

But she just stared past me as if I was a stranger

Closer to the ground

Wheels now touchin' down

And the land I had known, claimed as my own

Had moved along

Her clothes were torn, and her shirt was all tattered

Her eyes downcast, every hope and joy scattered

Dream of my past, bright memory shattered

But I adore her still 'cause I know that all that don't matter

Thunder in the sky

Water in she eye

The rain soon fell as if to tell

That the tears weren't only mine

Then I saw her standing there...
