Foreign Sand

Here we go - ain't it grand

Here we stand on foreign sand

And we're not alone

Why do we fear what we don't understand

Can't we reach out our hands to try to just say hello

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need

To make it grow - just say hello

And when you're far from home

try to learn from what you see

Your eyes will tell you everything you need

Why do we dread what we don't really know

Come not as concubine - come not as foe

Come with intentions clearly shown

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need

To make it grow - just say hello

And though you're far from home

try to learn from all you see

Your mind will tell you everything you need

everything you need

Here we go ain't it grand

here we stand on foreign sand

And we're not alone

Red, yellow, black and white

Every man stand in the light - stand not alone

It's not a lie - it's not a sham

We play for keeps - it's not a scam

No bigotry - we're hand in hand

It ain't a cinch - we make a stand

We learn to live on foreign sand - just say hello

Why do we despise when we can't even speak

We keep on spreading lies

As far as we know it's the only way to be

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need

To make it grow - just say hello

And though you're far from home

try to learn what you could be

Your heart will tell you everything you need

And though you're far from home

try to learn what you could be

Your heart will tell you everything you need

Even though you stand - here you stand on foreign sand

Ain't it grand here we stand - on foreign sand

Together we stand - on foreign sand

Together we stand - here we stand

On foreign sand
