Refugees (2009 Digital Remaster) - Van Der Graaf Generator

N was somewhere years ago and cold:

Ice locked the people's hearts and made them old

S was birth to pleasant lands but dry:

I walked the waters' depths and played my mind

E was dawn coming alive in the golden sun:

The winds came gently several heads became one

In the summertime though august people sneered

We were at peace and we cheered

We walked along sometimes hand in hand

Between the thin lines marking sea and sand;

Smiling very peacefully

We began to notice that we could be free

And we moved together to the West

W is where all days shall someday end;

Where the colours turn from grey to gold

And you can be with the friends

And light flakes the golden clouds above:

West is Mike and Susie

West is where I love

We're refugees walking away from the life we've known and loved

Nothing to do nor say nowhere to stay;

Now we are alone

We're refugees carrying all we own in brown bags

Tied up with string

Nothing to think it doesn't mean a thing

But we'll be happy on our own

West is Mike and Susie;

West is Mike and Susie;

West is where I love

West is refugees' home

We're refugees carrying all we own in brown bags

Tied up with string

Nothing to think it doesn't mean a thing

But we'll be happy on our own

We're refugees walking away from the life we've known and loved

Nothing to do nor say nowhere to stay;

Now we are alone
