Lyrics
And you ask me why I love her
No man, no madness
Though their sad power may prevail
Can possess, conquer, my country's heart
They rise to fail
She is eternal
Long before nations' lines were drawn
When no flags flew
When no armies stood
My land was born
Through wars, death and despair
we who don't care
And you wonder will I leave her
She is the constant,
but how?
I cross over borders but I'm still there now
How can I leave her?
Where would I start?
Let man's petty nations tear themselves apart
My land's only borders lie around my heart
No man, no madness
Though their sad power may prevail
Can possess, conquer, my country's heart
They rise to fail
She is eternal
Long before nations' lines were drawn
When no flags flew
When no armies stood
My land was born
Through wars, death and despair
we who don't care
And you wonder will I leave her
She is the constant,
but how?
I cross over borders but I'm still there now
How can I leave her?
Where would I start?
Let man's petty nations tear themselves apart
My land's only borders lie around my heart
