I WON’T GO WITHOUT YOU

They say there’s a new land in a time to come
Of peace and plenty for everyone
They say there’s a new land and I know it’s true
I won’t go without you. I won’t go without you
I won’t go without you. I won’t go without you

They say there’s a new land where our spirits wake
There’ll be earth magic there we can make
They say there’s a new land and I know it’s true
I won’t go without you. I won’t go without you
I won’t go without you. I won’t go without you

Last time I left you standing but that was yesterday
This time we ride together all the way
All the way

I’ve seen the new land the land of our birth
No more fear or hunger – justice on this earth
I’ve seen the new land. I hope we get through
I won’t go without you. I won’t go without you
I won’t go without you. I won’t go without you
I won’t go without you. I won’t go without you
I won’t go without you. I won’t go without you
