Lyrics:

The warm and lovely world we knew
Has been struck by a bitter frost
But my sister and I recall with a sigh
The world we knew and loved and lost

My sister and I remember still
A tulip garden by an old Dutch mill
And the home that was all our own until ...
But we don't talk about that

My sister and I recall once more
The fishing schooners pulling into shore
And the dog-cart we drove in days before ...
But we don't talk about that

We're learning to forget the fear
That came from a troubled sky
We're almost happy over here
But sometimes we wake at night and cry

My sister and I recall the day
We said goodbye, then we sailed away
And we think of our friends that had to stay
But we don't talk about that

We're learning to forget the fear
That came from a troubled sky
We're almost happy over here
But sometimes we wake at night and cry

My sister and I recall the day
We said goodbye, then we sailed away
And we think of our friends that had to stay
But we don't talk about that
