Albertine Lyrics - Albertine - Brooke Fraser

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 don't see with my own 

Rwanda 

[Chorus] 

now that I have seen, I am responsible 

Faith without deeds is 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] 

I will tell 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 thousand eyes on me 

I will tell them, Albertine 

I will tell them, Albertine
