I believed in grandfather's way
I chose to cherish my pride
I was aware of the price I must pay
I still have dreams left inside
My heart was filled with innocent trust
But when I opened my eyes
I was betrayed by the people I loved
Their darkness clouded my skies
Their weakness shattered our ties
- instrumental break -
Don't you believe the sun is dying sir
(You don't know, no you don't know)
Don't you believe in stars and signs
(Gone in a wink of an eye)
Don't you believe in magic
Don't you believe in magic
Feeding the feud till you die
In this world of hate and mistrust
I'm scared to open my eyes
This is no place for a child to grow up
Where greed and power entice
Where dreams are murdered by lies
On my own through the desert
On my own through the land
Let me take all the children by the hand
And I'll give them a future
And I'll give them a hope
That you fools on the earth don't understand
