From the recording EMPIRE
Children of the global diasporas, come home. Empire has fallen.
Lyrics
In stillness we are dancing, in stillness we still move
Echoing the voices that it brings
Beginning with the rhythm, beginning with the beat
Listening to our mother as she sings
But then your voice was missing, then your footprints gone
All of you our children disappeared
We see you in the dream time, wandering on the sand
Hungry with your belly full of tears
If the stars are strange
If you are far away
We will dance into thunder
We will sing of love
We will cry rivers
We never fell from grace, grace is here before us
Giving us our voices from the clay
We feel you here beside us, rising from the ground
Welcoming the dawning of the day
And like the rivers flowing, steady to the sea
Born from every single drop of rain
We will always love you, we will always call you
Guiding you to hold us once again
If the stars are strange
If you are far away
We will dance till you follow the thunder of our feet
And hear the desperate language of our love
Follow the thunder river down to the sea
We will sing you home
We will dream you home
We will sing of love
We will dance till you follow the thunder of our feet
And hear the desperate language of our love
Follow the thunder river down to the sea
We will sing you home
We will dream you home
Follow our love home
