Mercy (English version)

[Verse 1]
Here is where I was born with the name Mercy
Somewhere out in between, on the open sea
Mercy

[Verse 2]
Mama travelled so far over every tide
And for nearly nine months I was safe inside
Oh I, I was safe inside

But she couldn't ignore what she had to do
Ran away from the war, nothing left to lose
Oh no, nothing but our lives

[Chorus]
Here is where I was born with the name Mercy
Someone held out a hand, giving life to me
For all the children lost to the cold, cold sea
I'll live ten thousand years, je m'appelle Mercy

[Verse 3]
I had to take a breath, she had to be free
To start again with nothing left, start a life with me
Mercy

[Verse 4]
But surrounded by blue, nothing else in sight
If the water won we would pay the price
Oh we, we'd pay it with our lives

Rising over a wave came another boat
A chance at a survival, a sign of hope
Oh my, they sang when they heard me cry

[Chorus]
Here is where I was born with the name Mercy
Someone held out a hand, giving life to me
For all the children lost to the cold, cold sea
I'll live ten thousand years, je m'appelle Mercy

[Bridge]
Does it mean we're safe and sound, when we're on solid ground?
When tomorrow comes, will we all face it together?
When tomorrow comes

Here is where I was born with the name Mercy

[Outro]
Mercy, Mercy, I made it, Mercy
Mercy, Mercy, je vais bien merci
Mercy, Mercy, I made it, Mercy
Mercy, Mercy, je vais bien merci
Mercy, Mercy, I made it, Mercy
Mercy, Mercy, je vais bien merci
Mercy, Mercy, I made it, Mercy
Mercy, Mercy, je vais bien merci
