Out on the blue horizon, the clouds were rollin' in

The ground below was shaking, with the risin' wind

I looked over my shoulder, said goodbye to my home

After today there'd be no turning back, we were on our own

Everyone had taken sides, the battle lines were drawn

We stared into the face of war and waited for the dawn

Everything that we worked for, they took from our hands

We were left with no choice but to stand up and fight for this land

But don't worry, darlin', this will all be over soon

Just remember you will always be my girl

And somehow you will find the strength

To stand up on your own and live in this brave new world

How it all came down to this, no one can really say

Every time we cried out for help, they looked the other way

Now there's no turning back, we have got to be strong

We will travel the hard road to freedom, no matter how long

But don't worry, darlin', this will all be over soon

Just remember you will always be my girl

These are the times we're born into

This is why we're here to live in this brave new world
