Song information
Collaboration with Piotr Boleslaw (guitar, bass and samples)
John Stawell (drums) Mo (vocals and lyrics)

This song comes from stories my mother remembers of the town (Zielona Gora) we all lived in just after the war. It was not a pleasant place to live, even after all the years afterwards. We eventually emigrated to England, America and my family built a brand new life there.

Lyrics
In a dusty town, where hope runs dry
Corruption rules, and good folks sigh
With empty pockets and heavy hearts
We dream of a place for a brand new start

Far from home, we'll find our way
To greener pastures, a brighter day
Though the road is long, and the journey's hard
We'll build a life no tyrant can scar

With what we can carry upon our backs
We set out walking, along worn tracks
Leaving behind all we've ever known
Searching for a place to call our own

Far from home, we'll find our way
To greener pastures, a brighter day
Though the road is long, and the journey's hard
We'll build a life no tyrant can scar

In a foreign land, with open arms
We find new friends, and the healing comes
Though our accents strange, our stories long
We're welcomed here, where we belong

Far from home, we'll find our way
To greener pastures, a brighter day
Though the road is long, and the journey's hard
We'll build a life no tyrant can scar

Far from home, we've found our way
In this new land, we choose to stay

Great collaboration here.  Real pro sounding.  Your voice, which is great, reminds me of Sheryl Crow (in a good way of course).
