Aleppo in Spring was calm
And migrant birds would sing
Now it’s gone away
It’s all just dust and bones, and hate
Aleppo’s gone
She took all my loved ones with her
It’s time to move on
To the unknown
A rusty old boat
Smugglers and nasty weather
The European coast
Sadness and hope
With my law degree
I’m still a rain soaked refugee
Far away from home
There’s still some Aleppo in me
But Aleppo’s gone
She took all my loved ones with her
It’s time to move on
To the unknown
A rusty old boat
Smugglers and nasty weather
The European coast
Sadness and hope
