You nor I

  

    You nor I 

 

 

Neither You nor I will live to see that wonderful time 

When the world will live without a crime 

Neither you nor I will live to hear the victory cry 

Of freedom before one of us will die 

Neither you nor I will live to feel the keys to our chain 

Before we reveal the world our pain 

Neither you nor I will live to smell the air of our land 

When we all march southward hand in hand 

Neither you nor I will live to taste the cold bitter tear 

Of those who mourned our pain and or fear
