Lyrics 46 - viv

20 years of age
Inside the aeroplane
I waved goodbye to my past
I wouldn't see it again
I was waiting for better things
To come

That sense of freedom
That anything could happen then
I didn't know but it was
The feeling that remained
I was sure of better things to come

30 years
With strong conviction in my heart
I learned that hope is
Something that I work at
Didn't wait for things to come anymore

Had the faith
If I try really hard
'In-our-lifetime' change will come from the inside
I was making better things to come

46 today
I keep an open heart
Not let the ignorance
Take me apart

Don't have the answers anymore
Except that sense of freedom
That still entails
The hope of every human
