So far away from home
Never thought i'd feel alone
With people everywhere
No familar faces there
And now i can't find the strength i knew so well
Distant voice of freedom's bell
It echos in the air
The prisoner's constant prayer
And it breaks my heart to see the pain
I'm willing to do anything
To hold you for a while
Just to see you smile
And it breaks my heart in two
Knowing what we have to do to make it home again
And will we be together in the end
When tears fall from your eyes
And courage can't disguise
Your deepest weekness
A child lies in pieces
Just realize we'll always stand as one
Sure as the rising sun
Greets every new day
And warms away your heartache
And it breaks my heart to see the pain
I'm willing to do anything
To hold you for a while
Just to see you smile
And it breaks my heart in two
Knowing what we have to do to make it home again
And will we be together in the end
And it breaks my heart to see the pain
I'm willing to do anything
To hold you for a while
Just to see you smile
And it breaks my heart in two
Knowing what we have to do to make it home again
Will we be together in the end
We'll always be together, my friend
