A place, somewhere on earth
Where the rain so often hurts
A green and quiet valley
With many friends, with many trees

Where I live
The north's wind blows our fears away
The sun is shy, he never stays
To dry my pain
The place where I live
Where I live

There are so many ways
To walk alone and to be shared
My house, some miles away
Is a forgotten place on earth
You 'll see, engraved on stones
Forgotten names, forgotten bones
A bench to rest some time
Our old people are so fine

Where I live
The north's wind blows our fears away
The sun is shy, he never stays
To dry my pain
The place where I live
Will never be a southern town
I wear sun-glasses just for fun
Just to remember
Where I live, where I live

The oaks are proud and strong
they remember it was so hard
to live here some time ago
But now this moment is so far
My father's hands on me
A summer on my life to be
He had a land, I had his love
He talked to God above

Where I live
Will never be a southern town
I wear sun-glasses just for fun
Just to remember
Where I live …

Where I live, where I live…

Where I live
The north's wind blows our fears away
The sun is shy, he never stays
To dry my pain
The place where I live
Will never be a southern town
I wear sun-glasses just for fun
Just to remember
Where I live, where I live

I feel inside my heart
My father's house, his soul and love
The bench to rest some time
Everlasting place of mine.
