How can I desert you
How to tell you why
Coachmen hold the horses
Stay, I pray you
Let me have a moment
Let me say goodbye
To bridge and river
Forest and waterfall
Orchard, sea, and sky
Harsh and sweet
And bitter to leave it all
I?ll bless my homeland
Till I die
verse 1
How to break the tide
We have shed our tears
And shared our sorrows
Though the scars remain
And tears will never dry
I?ll bless my homeland
Till I die
verse 2
Never to return
Finally breaking free
You are all I know
You have raised me
How to turn away
How to close the door
How to go where I have
Never gone before
How can I desert you
How to tell you why
Coachmen hold the horses
Stay, I pray you
Let me have a moment
Let me say goodbye
Harsh and sweet
And bitter to leave it all
I?ll bless my homeland
Till I die
