Paroles de Dreaming of the north

a journey no man should make

hiding by day, walking by night

weeks and months a blur of hunger
thirst, sickness, violence and fear

europe closes one door

the smugglers open another

putting food in their bellies will not stop them

putting food in their bellies will not stop them



her name was gloria

she was sixteen years old and pregnant

by her murdered husband

she had contractions but the baby came feet-first
she was buried with her baby inside her

under leaves - because the ground was too hard



dreaming of the north

dreaming of the north

keep dreaming, yes, keep dreaming of

keep dreaming, yes, keep dreaming of the north
