"Foreign Sand" lyrics

Here we go, ain't it grand
Here we stand on foreign sand
And we're not alone

Why do we fear what we don't understand
Can't we reach out our hands
To try just say 'hello'

Try to plant a seed, fulfill the need
To make it grow, just say hello
And when you're far from home, try to learn from what 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, fulfill 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
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 shame
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
Far as we know it's the only way to be

Try to plant a seed, fulfill 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
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
On foreign sand
Together we stand
Here we stand on foreign sand
