A dream used to come to me
To build a home for my family
Nothing special you see
Four walls and a roof were enough for me
Worked long and hard and saved
For the home that we craved
A tent had been our home for years
For refugees life is full of hardship and tears
The day we finished our house
A rare moment of happiness for me and my spouse
Nothing special you see
Four walls and a roof were enough for me
The soldiers came at night
Filled my children with dread and fright
We were ordered to step outside
We had no choice, but to abide
In the rubble we were left to cry and scream
For the bulldozers had destroyed our dream
A tent is our home now and for years
As refugees life is full of hardship and tears
A dream still comes to me
To build a home for my family
Nothing special you see
Four walls and a roof are enough for me...
