Out here nothin' changes, not in a hurry anyway
You can feel the endlessness, with the comin' of the light o' day
We're talkin' 'bout a chosen place
You wanna sell it in a marketplace? Well
Well just a minute now
You're standin' on solid rock
You're standin' on sacred ground
You're livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line
Right down the line
Well, round about the dawn of time
The dreaming all began
The crowd of people came
Well, they were lookin' for their promised land
We're runnin' from the heart o' darkness
And searchin' for the heart o' light
But it was their paradise
Well, they were standin' on solid rock
They're standin' on sacred ground
They're livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Were blowing cold that night, oh
No!
Well, they were standin' on the shore one day
They saw the white sails in the sun
It wasn't long before they felt the sting
White man, white law, white gun
Don't tell me that it's justified
'Cause somewhere, well, someone lied
It's hard enough just to survive
We're trying to get stronger, yeah
