Lee Trees – Walk in the Shadows Lyrics

So I see you crossed the river, was it Twenty years ago
And you've been walking in the shadows, so no one else would know 
Did you think there'd be salvation, in the land of USA
Did you ever get a chance to dream along the way

What's it like to walk in the shadows, your whole life
Don't you think it would be better to walk in the light
I've been blind to what you've been feelin' how can I make it right
Cause all I have is the song I sing and the heart to join the fight

You've been cooking in our kitchens, you have labored in our fields
You've been mothers to our children and still remained concealed

And so the shadows fall across the Rio Grande 
Still they come to chase the dream all across the promise land
