Song information

Artist: Brooke Fraser
Album: Albertine

Lyrics

I am sitting still
I think of angelique
Her mothers 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 dont see with my own
Rwanda

Chorus
Now that I have seen, I am responsible
Faith without deeds with dead
Now that I have held you in my own arms, I cannot let go till you are

I am on a plane across a distant sea
But I carry you in me
And the dust on, the dust on, the dust on my feet
Rwanda

Chorus

[Brigde]
I will tel 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 thouand eyes on me
I will tell them, albertine
I will tell them, albertine
