Foreign Sand

Here we go - ain't it grand
Here we stand on foreign sand
We're not alone
Why do fear what we don't understand
Can we reach out our hands to try just say hello
Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need - to make it grow - just say hello
And when you're far from home try to learn from all you see
Your eyes will tell you everything you need

Why do we dread what we don't really know
Come not as concubine - come not as foe
Come with intentions clearly shown
Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need - to make it grow - just say hello
And though you're far from home try to learn from all you see
Your mind will tell you everything you need - everything you need

Here we go - ain't it grand here we stand on foreign sand
And we're not alone
Red, yellow, black and white
Every man stand in the light - stand not alone

It's not a lie - it's not a sham we play for keeps - it's not a scam
No bigotry - we're hand in hand - it ain't a cinch - we make a stand
We learn to live on foreign sand - just say hello

Why do we despise when we can't even speak
We keep on spreading lies
As far as we know it's the only way to be
Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need - to make it grow
Just say hello
And though you're far from home try to learn what you could be
Your heart will tell you everything you need
Even though you stand here you stand on foreign sand
Ain't it grand here we stand - on foreign sand
Together we stand - here we stand
On foreign sand
