Santiago

From the ports of the west we sailed into the sun

South America bound a journey begun

Lights going out in the Barrios half a world away

Oceans to cross and a course to steer all the way

We bought copper and ore, silver and gold

In the mines and the fileds the sweat of a people was

sold

Lights coming on in the Barrios a long day's labour at

an end

They saw the wealth of the mountains

Flow all the way

All the way to Santiago

All the way to Santiago

All the way to Santiago

All the way

And when the country was torn

Oh we chose sides

Selling arms to the dew to hold back the tide

Fires burned in the Barrios

We poured oil upon the flames

Sending bullets and bombs, guns and planes

All the way

From the hearts of the west they'll fly back to the sun

South American bound, the journey is done

They'll be laughter and songs in the Barrios to echo

half the world away

When Maria y Juan y Julio

Isabella Manuel y Mario

Felipe Raoul y Mauricio

All the way to Santiago

All the way to Santiago

All the way to Santiago

All the way
