We are ancient |
|
As ancient as the sun |
|
We came from the ocean |
|
Once our ancestral home |
|
So that one day |
|
We could all return |
|
To our birthright |
|
The great celestial dome |
|
We are the children of the sun |
|
Our journey's just begun |
|
Sunflowers in our hair |
|
We are the children of the sun |
|
There is room for everyone |
|
Sunflowers in our hair |
|
Throughout the ages |
|
Of iron, bronze, and stone |
|
We marvelled at the night sky |
|
And what may lie beyond |
|
We burned our frames |
|
To the elemental ones |
|
Made sacrifices |
|
For beauty, peace and love |
|
We are the children of the sun |
|
Our kingdom will come |
|
Sunflowers in our hair |
|
We are the children of the sun |
|
Our carnival's began |
|
Our songs will fill the air |
|
And you know it's time |
|
To look for reasons why |
|
Just reach up and touch the sky |
|
To the heavens we will sing |
|
We are the children of the sun |
|
Our journey has begun |
|
Are we older children |
|
Come out at night |
|
And even soulless |
|
Great hunger in their eyes |
|
Unaware of the beauty |
|
That sleeps tonight |
|
And all the queen's horses |
|
And all the king's men |
|
Will never put these children back |
|
Together again |
|
Faith, hope, our charities |
|
Breathe slow, our enemies |
|
We are the children of the sun |
|
We are the children of the sun |
