Anthem Lyrics by Michael Ball, Alfie Boe

Together

2016

[BALL]
No man, no madness
Though their sad power may prevail
Can possess, conquer, my country's heart
They rise to fail

[BOE]
She is eternal
Long before nations' lines were drawn
When no flags flew, and no armies stood
My land was born

[BOTH]
And you ask me why I love her
Through wars, death and despair
She is the constant
We who don't care
And you wonder would I leave her - but how?
I cross over borders but I'm still there now

How can I leave her?
Where would I start?
Let men's petty nations tear themselves apart
My land's only borders lie around my heart
