Cornelia - The Eastern Plain

So hard to see

From the moment we arrive

Cornelia

You are one who will survive

When times been bad

You put smiles on everyone

I think of you

And of all I should’ve done

It don’t mean a thing

What shape or form that you’re in

The place you’re from

Your wealth, or the colour of your skin

When all you have

Burns to the sky

It’s all too late

And you wonder why

Cornelia

Your every day

Is a struggle and a strive

But don’t you agree

With beating hearts, we’re still alive

There comes a time

When all you have is who you love

And Cornelia

You’ll be all I’m thinking of

It don’t mean a thing

What shape or form that you’re in

The place you’re from

Your wealth, or the colour of your skin

When all you have

Burns to the sky

It’s all too late

And you wonder why

Cornelia
