Elephant (Live från Ullevi)

Elephant (Live från Ullevi) - Laleh

Lyrics by：Laleh Pourkarim

Composed by：Laleh Pourkarim

I hear the children play

With the guards of the jail

With the guards of the jail

With the guards of the jail

I'm thinking of a new name

That I could give myself

One day I'll be myself

One day I'll be my own

It's been forty long years

In the desert I have been

I've even hit the devil's nose

Ah yeah

In the desert I have grown

As the woman said

That day when I was crying out

God puts his diamonds in the sand

But then he always takes them back

Have a good day brother

Me and your sister will rise up

Like an elephant from the mud

In your carefree sleep

We will break free

We will break free

Have a good day brother

Me and your little bro will rise up

Like an elephant from the storm

In your carefree sleep

We will break free

We will break free

And the city will be reborn

And the streets will be washed

May the streets be clean and washed

May the streets be clean and washed

And we will wave our hand

And everybody will forgive the past

And everybody will forgive the past

And everybody will forgive the past

And as the woman said

That day when I was crying out

God puts his diamonds in the sand

But then he always takes them back

Have a good day brother

Me and your sister will rise up

Like an elephant from the mud

In your carefree sleep

We will break free

We will break free

Have a good day

Have a good day brother

You and my little bro will rise up

Like an elephant from the storm

In your carefree sleep

We will break free

We will break free

We will break free

We will break free

We will break free

We will break free

We will break free

We will break free
