Migrants ft. John H Lyrics

When migrant birds fly

They dream of a warmer clime

High in the sky

Hostages marking time

Without the sun

The land lies alone

Silent and dark

Now she is gone

When tall ships set sail

They follow the wind of change

No tide can prevail

Reverse or rearrange

Back in the harbour

A quayside lies bare

Silent and dark

Now she's not there

To those who suffer on the cross

When chaos fills your mind

Is it better to have loved and lost

Better to be left behind

When angels take wing

Their trail is an empty wake

Where lonely birds sing

And shores wait for waves to break

Sailors of oceans

Angels above

Harbour of memory

The dying of love

High on the ramparts

Where lovers have flown

Silent and dark

The migrant is gone
