"The Dreamer" lyrics

Just a child when she crossed the border
To reunite with her father
Who had travelled North to support her
So many years before
She left half her family behind her
And with a crucifix to remind her
She pledged her future to this land
And does the best that she can do

A donde van los sueños
Nacidos de la fé y la illusión
Donde no hay camino ni juella
Solo deseos que susuran al corazón

Eagles fly on columns of the wind (Viviendo en el viento)
Fish swim the currents of the sea (Que libre, el mar)
People cross oceans and deserts and rivers (Cruzamos el rio)
Carrying nothing more the dream of what life could be

Today she got the order
They're taking steps to deport her
To send her back over the border
And tear her away from the life she has made
We don't see half the people around us
But we see enemies who surround us
And the walls that we've built between us
Keep us prisoners of our fear

A donde van los sueños (Where do the dreams go?)
Nacidos de la fé y la illusión (Born of faith and illusion)
Donde no hay camino ni juella (Where there's no road and no footprint)
Solo deseos que susuran al corazón
(Only desire that whispers to the heart)
Solo deseos que susuran al corazón
(Only desire that whispers to the heart)
Solo deseos que susuran al corazón
