Bui Doi-Collabro

Bui Doi (From "Miss Saigon") - Collabro They're called me doi The dust of life Conceived in hell And born in strife They are the living reminder Of all the good we failed to do We can't forget Must not forget That they are all our children too Like all survivors I once thought When I'm home I won't give a d**n But now I know I'm caught I'll never leave Vietnam War isn't over when it ends Some pictures never leave your mind They are the faces of the children The ones we left behind They're called bui doi The dust of life Conceived in hell And born in strife They are the living reminders Of all the good we failed to do We can't forget Must not forget That they are all our children too These kids hit walls on every side They don't belong in any place Their secret they can't hide It's printed on their face I never thought one day I'd plead For half breeds from a land that's torn But then I saw a camp for children Whose crime was being born They're called bui doi The dust of life Conceived in hell And born in strife We owe them fathers and a family A loving home they never knew Because we know deep in our hearts That they are all our children too These are souls in need They need us to give Someone has to pay for their chance to live Help me try They're called bui doi The dust of life Conceived in hell And born in strife They are the living reminders Of all the good we failed to do That's why we know That's why we know Deep in our hearts Deep in our hearts That's why we know That they are all our children too
