Footprints Of Vietnam

I remember my country's grief and lives gone astray
wings weary with disbelief heaven was worlds away
in times when all seemed lost
adrift on stormy seas
unheard cries of sacrifice dreams shattered helplessly
through all twenty years memories remain alive
through those long lost times, still remember all our lives...

Under the endless sky there's still no freedom
searching for human right
the journey never end
cause love and open hearts embrace us kindly
suppress our wounded souls so now we have a home

Through all twenty years looking back on memories
touched by human souls with the love that last forever
Thanks America, for you open arms
Grand merci la France pour vos bras ouverts
Thanks Australia, for your open arms
Merci Canada, pour la liberte'

The day when the land was new,
each word such a strange sound
unknown in endless streets
each step we feel the pain
Through time we learned to live and learned to fly again
our friends of a different race
we share the same destiny...

we faced life and death in every step
we've found life and death in every step

Although our lives fulfilled
we miss our homeland
mother spends sleepless nights
wishing for our home
in love and life we know
it's harder to be apart
once lost we feel the pain
united we'll survive

Through all twenty years looking back on memories
touched by human souls with the love that last forever
we must be heard twenty years go by
live in love and hate, found our place in time
Grand merci La France pour vos bras ouverts
Danka Germany for your open arms
Merci Canada pour la liberte'
Thanks America for your open arms
We thank the world for its true freedom
we thank the world, we thank the world
Thank you, we thank you all....

All across the world, scattered footsteps of Vietnam
all across the world, scattered footsteps of Vietnam!!!
