Текст песни Bui-Doi - Peter Polycarpou feat. Choir

they're called bui-doi
the dust of life
conceived in hell
and born in strife
they are the living reminder of all the good we failed to do
we can't forget, must not forget
that they are all our children too
like all survivors, i once thought
when i'm home, i won't give a damn
but now. i know i'm caught
i'll never leave veitnam
war isn't over when it ends
some pictures never leave your mind
they are the faces of the children
the ones we left behind
they're called bui-doi
the dust of life
conceived in hell
and born in strife
they are the living reminders of all the good we failed to do
that's why we know, deep in our hearts
that they are all our children too
these kids had walls on every side
they don't belong in any place
their secret, they can't hide
it's printed on their face
i never thought one day i'd plead
for half-breeds from a land that's torn
but, then i saw a camp for children
who's crime was being born
they're called bui-doi
the dust of life
conceived in hell
and born in strife
we are their fathers
and a family
a loving home they never knew
because we know, deep in our hearts, that they're all our children too
these are souls in need
they need us to give
someone has to pay
for their chance today
help me try!
(they're called bui-doi
the dust of life
conceived in hell)
and born in strife
they are the living reminders
of all the good we failed to do
that's why we know
deep in our hearts
that's why we know
that they are all
our children too!
