Song for Emigrants Songtext
von The High Water Marks

She packs her chest and leaves not anything behind she cannot see
He reassures her it is better there and finally they will breathe
They pack the wagon full and say goodbye and leave this stony ground
One last look up at this home they made for see where they are bound


Now its a new day
I nearly lost my way
I wanted all of this for you

The air is strong and thick and feels so strange they′re on to a new land
Riding steam engines and riverboats they're closer to their clan
Axes penetrate these foreign trees which hands have never lain
Ground is broken for the second time this life is kind to stay

Now its a new day
I nearly lost my way
I wanted all of this for you
