Roger Taylor - Foreign Sand lyrics

Here we stand on foreign sand

And we're not alone

Why do we fear what we don't understand

Can't we reach out our hand to try just say 'hello'

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need - to make it grow - just say hello

And when you're far from home try to learn from all you see

Your eyes will tell you everything you need

Why do we dread what we really don't know

Come not as concubine - come not as foe

Come with intentions clearly shown

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need - to make it grow - just say hello

And though you're far from home try to learn from all you see

Your mind will tell you everything you need - everything you need

Here we go ain't it grand

Here we stand on foreign sand

And we're not alone

Red, yellow, black and white

Every man stand in the light - stand not alone

I's not a lie - it's not a sham we play for keeps - it's not a scam

No bigotry - we're hand in hand - it ain't a cinch - we make a stand

We learn to live on foreign sand

Just say hello

Why do we despise when we can't even speak

We keep on spreading lies

As far as we know it's the only way to be

Try to plant a seed - fulfil the need - to make it grow - just say hello

And though you're far from home try to learn what you could be

Your heart will tell you everything you need

even though you stand here you stand on foreign sand

Ain't it grand here we stand

On foreign sand

Together we stand

Here we stand

On foreign sand
