In a press release by MacDonald’s management company, it was revealed that “Across The Nile” was inspired by Egyptians celebrating the ousting of President Mubarak.
[Verse 1]
Wave your flag high above your head
You deserve to smile, celebrate in style
'Cause everything that depressed you now is gone
And eighteen days while the world looked on
You stood your ground, kept holding strong
Eighteen days while the world looked on
[Chorus]
Across the Nile, there are stars tonight
And they shine much brighter than before
Across the Nile, there's peace and love tonight
And it shows much stronger than before
Much stronger than before
[Verse 2]
Free and fair life they said it would be
Cross our fingers, wait and see
And dream of a better day
And across the world you've shown them all
That hope and strength can conquer all
Will we stand together again?
[Chorus]
Across the Nile, there are stars tonight
And they shine much brighter than before
Across the Nile, there's peace and love tonight
And it shows much stronger than before
Much stronger than before
[Outro]
Hope and strength can conquer all
You've shown the world how the mighty fall
And across the Nile there are stars
Much brighter than before
Across the Nile was written by Amy MacDonald.
