CAPO: 5 Intro: I will write you one last time You will be here in the morning I imagine that you're sleeping On the North Atlantic swell There's a wind in off the sea Enough to keep me waking Enough to make me think We will say no more farewells All the words that pass between us A line of pale blue letters Stretching from the Sambro lighthouse To the waves around Lands End Now you're following that line Enveloped by the darkness You'll find me waiting When you reach its end All the ones who ran from war All the wealthy and the wounded That have landed on this shore They don't mean a thing to me All that matters is the one Who will be with me tomorrow It's a lonely heart that loves the refugee You've left behind your home I have left behind my family We have come here to this shore With the strength to start anew There's a world here for the taking A safe and steady harbour There's a million things to think of But tonight I'll think of you Well, it's immigrants we are This land has known no other There's a million came before us A million more will follow on An endless wave is washing On this rocky coastline Carving features in the landscape Fanning out and moving on All the ones who ran from war All the wealthy and the wounded That have landed on this shore They don't mean a thing to me All that matters is the one Who will be with me tomorrow It's a lonely heart that loves the refugee Tomorrow morning you'll look out You will see this lovely coastline From Mitchell Bay to Prospect It will seem like open arms And those arms will enfold you Sweep you safe into the harbour Deliver you from loneliness and harm Tomorrow morning I will climb Upon the hill above the harbour I will look out to the East To where the heaven meets the sea When the ship has come in sight I will run down to the dockside And welcome here just one more refugee All the ones who ran from war All the wealthy and the wounded That have landed on this shore They don't mean a thing to me All that matters is the one Who will be with me tomorrow It's a lonely heart that loves the refugee It's a lonely heart that loves the refugee
