In Our Hands


Solitary wanderer, unrestrained dancer,
independent mountaineer
lend me your hand, throw me a line
to leave the boundaries behind
with trembling knees, I‘m prepared for life
build the bridge again
that we‘d walked yesterday

It‘s in our hands to become friends
if it‘s the right way to act
I can‘t really answer that

We walk the ladder of life
step by step closer to the last
not lost just out of sight

Life is like a jigsaw of millions of pieces
you try to bring together
every counterpart of each
some will find them all, but for most
there will be left a hole
they aren‘t able to arrange with strangers
they only met with incomprehensible hate

It‘s in our hands to become friends
if it‘s the right way to act
I can‘t really answer that

We walk the ladder of life
step by step closer to the last
not lost just out of sight

Don‘t hide your face in the sand
look in the stranger‘s eyes
accept his culture

It‘s in our hands to become friends
we walk the ladder of life
step by step closer to the last
not lost just out of sight.
