Valentina There's a place for us, Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air wait for us, Somewhere.
There's a time for us, Some day a time for us
Time together with time to spare, time to look, time to care, Someday.
Somewhere we'll find a new way of living.
We'll find a way of forgiving, Somewhere. Lieutenant Schrank What's a gang without its terrain, its turf? You're a month or two away from finding out, one step ahead of the wrecking ball.
