Somewhere Near Judea

Powerful winds over America 
The songs we once new 
   are carried away 
by these winds
   Remaining on the ground 
  we watch the songs as they fly away 
Our spirits need to reach upwards 
if we are to survive and grow 
In this fantasy called 
AMERICA

Very nice, reminds me of the pop Neil diamond song, they're coming to America.
