Lyrics

Let us not forget
Let us not forget
Who we are, whence we came, where we shall go
Let us not forget
We have now fallen and forgotten who we are
Wandering on earth with no compass in hand

[Verse 2]
But we can remember, we can remember
Let us not forget that although cast in this lowly world
Let us not forget
Although blinded by veils of neglect and heedlessness
We arе placed here on еarth to remember

[Chorus]
To remember
Who we really are as we make this journey of earthly life
To remember
Who we really are as we make this journey of earthly life

[Bridge]
Aah, aah-aah, aah-aah
Aah, aah-aah, aah-aah
Mm, mm-mm, mm
Aah, aah-aah, aah-aah
Aah, aah-aah, mm-aah
Mm, mm-mm, mm

[Refrain]
Let us not forget
Who we are, whence we came, where we shall go
Let us not forget
We have now fallen and forgotten who we are
Wandering on earth with no compass in hand

[Chorus]
To remember (Who we really are as we make this journey of earthly life)
To remember (Who we really are as we make this journey of earthly life)
To remember (Who we really are as we make this journey of earthly life)
To remember (Who we really are as we make this journey of earthly life)

[Outro]
Let us not forget
Who we are, whence we came, where we shall
Go
