lyrics

1. Vers:
I was born in the arms of an angel, man
I´ll be blessed for my whole life.
I felt the beat of Bruce Springsteen and his band,
Felt the breath, that showed me yes I´m alive.

Somewhere in the east of Austria
a little town, that I call my home.
It´s been the place, where my family settled down
and the place, where we take care of our own

Since the day we were born, it´s been the night we´ve decided to fight

2. Vers:
My dad was working hard day in day out
Just to let us reach the sky
My mum tried to keep it all in
this was love, and man don´t say that´s a lie

Since the day we were born, it´s been night we´ve decided to fight

Chorus:
Yeah we´ve decided to fight as a family, as one
just try to understand that force
remember it is not too late, you can open this gate
to find the same for you.

3. Vers:
It was the day of my birth, do you know my friend
it happened some 20 years ago.
I ´m still a branch of this veteran tree of life
I know, I´m not the last one on that row

First I was afraid, couldn´t find my way
they called me crazy, some even laughed at me
Time passed by, I learned my lessons the hard way
I realized, that´s my family

Since the day we were born, it´s been night we´ve decided to fight

Chorus:
Yeah we´ve decided to fight as a family, as one
just try to understand that force
remember it is not too late, you can open this gate
to find the same for you.
