Annotation

Vietnam From a train I see green fields / People have been killed there / Still hills, there's no guns, nor machines... / I sailed ashore, I could sense... / Vietnam.... / Inspiration for the song "When I went to Vietnam I felt fragmented. I was anxious and didn’t sleep for three days. To see that a country with such a painful history had become such a harmonic, green and beautiful place, made me find hope for myself, and eventually peace in myself. The journey inspired me to write the song Vietnam .
