Oh My Brave Hearts
Chris de Burgh
verse 1: Oh my brave hearts we must leave this land tomorrow. We can’t live here anymore. And in the quiet hours we talk before the dawn. verse 2: And the old hearts they are calling from the shadows. Telling us we must not go Oh but we cannot fight the power of the gun To take away our land they take it from our sons swear it on my hands. Chorus: We will return to run here like the wolf And see the hunter’s moon and watch our river flow It’s not gone forever. verse 3: Oh my bold hearts we will go down to the city. We will live by city light. But in the darkest hour keep this fire alive. verse 4: We will grow strong we will bring our wealth together. Never showing what we have And when the time has come we’ll reach out for the gun. Taking back our land take it for our sons swear it on my hands. Chorus: We will return to run here like the wolf And see the hunter’s moon and watch our river flow. We will return to touch the open sky And see the eagle fly and feel the morning rain. It’s not gone forever...
