"Motherland" lyrics

On that day
I watched you walk away
I just waved my hand and said
"Goodbye", the same as always

Days go on
And still I wish upon
The same bright star
That shines so far away

To believe
In something we call love
Means your heart is strong
It will never lead you wrong

One day soon my dreams will all come true
Until then I'll wake up
Though you won't be there
I will keep smiling
'Cause I haven't forgotten you

I just wanna be the star you look to
No matter where you are
Let me be the one to wipe away all of your pain
So whenever you look up you'll know that you will never be all alone
Even if you are so very far away
Let me be the arms you call home one day

In this town
Is still where I remain
I live as if nothing's wrong
And act like I can feel no pain

I believe
And pray I'll see you soon
To believe it's true
Is all that I can do

Everything happens for a reason
Though the seasons change
I pray you stay safe yeah

Even if all your dreams start to fade
It might feel hopeless but keep your head held high
All of the tears we'll cry
I'll always be by your side

It's okay to cry because it hurts more
To hold back all of your tears
Let your tired heart find rest
Until tomorrow's light
All throughout the night you'll sleep dreaming of the sunrise that awaits you
Like we used to do as children long ago

Though this world is vast
We're all connected under the same sky
All the stars that hang over me and the clouds passing by
I'll keep you by my side

Can you hear my voice as I am screaming out my heart
You're so far away but can my voice reach where you are?
I just wanna be the star you look to
No matter where you are
Let me be the one to wipe away all of your pain
So whenever you look up you'll know that you will never be all alone
Even if you are so very far away
Let me be the arms you call home one day
Let me be the arms you call home one day
