Rihanna - Stranded Haiti Mon Amour Lyrics

[jay-z:]
When the sky falls and the earth quakes
We gon put this back together
We won't break

When the sky falls and the earth quakes
We gon put this back together
We won't break

[jay-z:]
Sa pa sé, my port-au-princes
My haitian gods and all of my princesses
Our condolences as you fightin' against this
We're right by your side
As we tryin' to make sense of this
Heavenly father help us see through these problems
And for those that left
Accept them into your garden
So here's my theory
The country's already starvin'
So we sacrificed many
To shed light on all of them
God please pardon, I speak from the heart
Its the only way I see this tragedy befall on them
So lets get involved with them
Hand to hand with them arm to arm with them
Til they get strong again, when the sky falls

[rihanna and bono:]
Can't wait until tomorrow
Haiti, mon amour
Haiti, mon amour
Not gonna leave you stranded, alone, alone
Oh no

Can't wait until tomorrow
Haiti, mon amour
Haiti, mon amour
Not gonna leave you stranded, alone, alone
Oh no

[jay-z:]
Learn from the past
new orleans was flooded
So we know we just can't rely on the government
We under the rubble again
here we go rumbling when
When we gon catch a break
my friend lost his mother and then
And then, carline lost her uncles and them
Buried with no caskets
they just put covers on them
And the tears fall, and we fight back
Story ain't done, it can't end like that
Nah not like this
tomorrow's survivors gonna carry on your name
You live on inside us, your memory's alive with us
You inspired us, to rebuild this country
you just guide us

[rihanna and bono:]
Can't wait until tomorrow
Haiti, mon amour
Haiti, mon amour
Not gonna leave you stranded, alone, alone
Oh no

[bono:]
It's not the angels that are on their way
Its not the bells of santa trinite
The people waiting, position vacant
For hands to help, not just to pray

[rihanna and bono:]
Can't wait until tomorrow
Haiti, mon amour
Haiti, mon amour
Not gonna leave you stranded, alone, alone
Oh no

[french singing]
Haïti va s'élever
Tu vas te relever
Nous nous éléverons
Ensemble ensemble ensemble

(not gonna leave you stranded...)

[jay-z:]
We gon put this back together we wont break
We gon put this back together we wont break
We gon put this back together we wont break
We gon put this back together we wont break
