"Here And There" lyrics

"Here And There"

Here and there
Here and there
Here and there
Here and there

Holland’s not just a place to grow tulips
Empty houses can grow into homes
“Tu me manqué” means in French that I miss you
“Savner dig” means the same but I am cold
It means the same but I am cold
I am cold

If I learned German with you in Brussels,
Would I be a citizen of your world?
Here they’re fighting for use of a language
In my country they are fighting to survive
They are fighting to survive, to survive

Here and there
Here and there
Here and there
Here and there

“Ik mis je” means in Flemish that I miss you,
But that we are worlds apart
Who needs a wall, when words can divide us?
“Savner dig” means I miss you all the same
It means I miss you and I’m to blame
I’m to blame
I’m to blame

Here and there
Here and there
Here and there
Here and there
