bernard ogalo oduor - Remember.

Remember the first day
You saw me at the bay
You wanted to sing, jump and play
Clear eyes, a sweet smile; you were gay
That picture has come to me again
But...
Many things are the same no longer
And this I cant stop to ponder
For far away in the land yonder
You cant feel my hunger
You cant hear my heart thunder
You cant see me wander
And always in a wonder
Why today we are asunder.
