Lyrics

Strangers
In a forgotten place
Travelling
To Agadez
I?m alone with my children
A stranger to my man.

Lost
In this desert wilderness
Motionless
In a shimmering mirage
I don?t know what I?m doing
I?m losing my mind

There?s danger
Round every corner
There?s food
On every floor
And we?re travelling on a fruit truck.
Travelling
To Agadez.
