A legacy, so far removed,

Eternal rights we left behind,

   Two the same, set free too,

We fought for good, stood side by side,

On stranger waves, the lows and highs,
Dm
   Our vision touched the sky,

Immortalists with points to prove,

A house somewhere on foreign soil,
Dm
   Where aging lovers call,
     G                             F
Is this your goal, your final need?
Dm
   Where dogs and vultures eat?

Committed still, I turn to go,

In you, in you, in you.

Put my trust in you, in you.
