Leaving Home

LETRA

Leaving Home

It was a sunny day
When you learned to stand up
So proud and oh so brave
You made those tiny steps
Right into my arms
The day I went away
They said I had to leave
For glory and for peace
For honour and for boon
It won't be long until
Our enemies are banned
They take me back home soon

Say good bye but not farewell
My little boy
Say good bye and don't you cry
My little boy

It was a sunny day
When I learned to stand up
So fearful and afraid
I held you in my arms
So warm and so alive
The day I went away
They said I had to leave
For glory and for peace
For honour and for boon
It won't be long until
Our enemies are banned
They take me back home soon
Your picture in my heart
Will give me will and strength
And help me to hold out

I'll save the world for you
My little boy
I'll save the world for you

The winds of darkness will take me away
On wings of blankness I'm going astray
I'm going under
I'm losing my way
I'm freely falling
I'm going astray
