Kishore Kumar Hits — Acoustic Syndicate - The Ballad Of Marie St. Lauriette şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Acoustic Syndicate

albüm: Terra Firma

Well she was born
Marie St. Lauriette
From the poorest of countries
And the town of Port Au Prince
Born the daughter of a poor man
She watched her family die in vain
Swept away by the flood
Of the mighty hurricane
But she's still alive
A little weathered by the sun
And as hard as her life is here
She still smiles for everyone
And with a little time
I know she'll rise above
All the heartaches and trouble
Of the Haitian way of love
She came to Miami
Back in 1993
On a small, wooden vessel
Not worthy of the sea
Her very life hung in the balance
She never really had a choice
And all along the voyage
She could hear her father's voice
He said, You're still alive
A little weathered by the sun
And as hard as our life is here
We still gotta smile for everyone
And with a little time
I know she'll rise above
All the heartaches and troubles
Of the Haitian way of love
Still a young woman
Her face betrays her age
Worn, bruised and battered
From the Haitian sugar cane
Oh but now she's in Miami
She's gonna find a better way
And as long as she's breathing
There will be a better day
She's still alive
A little weathered by the sun
And as hard as her life is here
She's still got a smile for everyone
And with a little time
I know she'll rise above
All the heartache and troubles
Of the Haitian way of love
All the heartaches and troubles
Of the Haitian way
