[00:00.000] 作曲 : John Edmond
[00:05.122]With my little boy and girl on my knee
[00:11.193]I tell them stories so religiously
[00:16.833]And I assure them that nothing was wrong
[00:22.778]But all around us, a war it was on
[00:28.153]
[00:28.669]And for some reason I could not hide
[00:34.099]My deep concerns I was keeping inside
[00:39.916]From out of the mouths of babes there always came
[00:45.544]Those burning questions, always the same
[00:50.254]
[00:51.415]Where do we come from, we want to know
[00:57.108]With a faraway look in your eye where do you go?
[01:02.944]You always told us never to cry
[01:08.770]But we see a tear way deep in your faraway eye
[01:14.137]
[01:20.591]There far behind us we left that fair land
[01:26.338]Memories buried in the shifting of sand
[01:32.309]That little boy and girl, now they have grown
[01:38.000]And they have children of their very own
[01:42.841]
[01:43.603]And for some reason I could not hide
[01:49.087]My deep emotion I was keeping inside
[01:54.889]From out of the mouths of babes there always came
[02:01.042]Those burning questions, always the same
[02:06.206]
[02:06.937]Where do we come from, we want to know
[02:12.693]With a faraway look in your eye where do you go?
[02:18.497]You always told us never to cry
[02:23.916]But we see a tear way deep in your faraway eye
[02:35.779]You came from blood lines so bold and so free
[02:41.681]You came from standards of pure decency
[02:47.286]You came from brave hearts that cherished the land
[02:52.837]You came from believers of God's mighty plan
[02:58.956]And for some reason I cannot hide
[03:04.797]All of the answers I'm holding inside
[03:10.509]So for the ears of babes, my words stay the same
[03:15.909]Be proud of your heritage, be proud of your name
[03:21.721]That's where you come from, and now you know
[03:27.588]With a faraway look in my eye, that's where I go
[03:33.271]And though I told you never to cry
[03:39.235]I'm entitled a tear way deep in my faraway eye
[03:44.893]That's where you come from, and now you know
[03:50.651]With a faraway look in my eye, that's where I go
[03:56.364]And though I told you never to cry
[04:02.136]I'm entitled a tear way deep in my faraway eye

作曲 : John Edmond
With my little boy and girl on my knee
I tell them stories so religiously
And I assure them that nothing was wrong
But all around us, a war it was on
And for some reason I could not hide
My deep concerns I was keeping inside
From out of the mouths of babes there always came
Those burning questions, always the same
Where do we come from, we want to know
With a faraway look in your eye where do you go?
You always told us never to cry
But we see a tear way deep in your faraway eye
There far behind us we left that fair land
Memories buried in the shifting of sand
That little boy and girl, now they have grown
And they have children of their very own
And for some reason I could not hide
My deep emotion I was keeping inside
From out of the mouths of babes there always came
Those burning questions, always the same
Where do we come from, we want to know
With a faraway look in your eye where do you go?
You always told us never to cry
But we see a tear way deep in your faraway eye
You came from blood lines so bold and so free
You came from standards of pure decency
You came from brave hearts that cherished the land
You came from believers of God's mighty plan
And for some reason I cannot hide
All of the answers I'm holding inside
So for the ears of babes, my words stay the same
Be proud of your heritage, be proud of your name
That's where you come from, and now you know
With a faraway look in my eye, that's where I go
And though I told you never to cry
I'm entitled a tear way deep in my faraway eye
That's where you come from, and now you know
With a faraway look in my eye, that's where I go
And though I told you never to cry
I'm entitled a tear way deep in my faraway eye
