Lyrics
Days and nights we move on
To fight the noble cause
Never falter never
Once do we pause
We are strong we defend
All our lives we are friends
I can see the starlight
Shining through the dawn
I can see the long road
Leading on and on
Can't look back it's the end
There is hope we are friends
There was was once a rainbow
And a pot of gold
There was once a treasure
Wondrous to behold
But it can't compare
With my homeland so fair
I long for days of summer
Butterflies and bees
I long for golden meadows
And a singing breeze
I am back again
This is now not then
Here ends this our chapter
Of a special tale
Now we see the future
Over hill and dale
We shall follow the sun
A new day has begun
Rainbows have their places
So do pots of gold
But we need friendly faces
When we're growing old
The only gem that can mend
A broken heart is a friend
