Jennifer Warnes - Patriot's Dream lyrics

Living now, here but for fortune Placed by fate's mysterious schemes Who'd believe that we're the ones asked To try to rekindle the patriot's dream Arise sweet destiny, time runs short All of your patience has heard their retort Hear us now, for alone we can't seem To try to rekindle the patriot's dream Can you hear the words being whispered All along the American stream Tyrants freed, the just are imprisoned To try to rekindle the patriot's dream Ah but perhaps too much Is being asked of too few You and your children with nothing to do Hear us now, for alone we can't seem To try to rekindle the patriot's dream
