ALBERTINE

I am sitting still

I think of Angelique

Her mother's voice over me

And the bullets in the wall where it fell silent

And on a thousandth hill

I think of Albertine

There in her eyes what I don't see

With my own

Rwanda

CHORUS

Now that I have seen

I am responsible

Faith without deeds is dead

Now that I have held you

In my own arms

I cannot let go ‘til you are

I am on a plane

Across a distant sea

But I carry you in me

And in the dust on, the dust on my feet

Rwanda

CHORUS

Bridge

And I'll tell the world

I will tell them where I've been

I will keep my word

I will tell them, Albertine

CHORUS

I am on a stage

A thousand eyes on me

I will tell them, Albertine

I will tell them, Albertine
