Hey How you’ve been?
Have you found your feet in a strangers’ town?
Me? Guess I’m quite at home
Speaking in language that once sounded strange
That day we didn’t know what was going on
Our dads said we leave so we did
Thinking we’ll come back in two three days
But seven years passed since that day
Friends who got separated never made amends
Brothers went missing never made it home
“Thank-you’s” s and “Sorry’s” I’m yet to say
Everything’s on hold since that day
With time we grow
But time keeps us far away
From the place where once was called home
Is our home still waiting us there?
Made new friends in this new town
Saying “I’m home” to a new found home
Living with a sense of
Sadness happiness and a little bit of guilt
You ask me if I wanna go back
I find myself lost in words
It’s not to a certain place I wanna go back
It’s to that someone who was there till that day
If you get to say goodbye
It’s a happy way to part with anyone
I know I’m stronger now
But not so sure what strength is
All tears must have gone by on that day
With time we grow
But time keeps us astray
I know I’m stronger now
But not so sure what weakness is
Maybe I just learned to put a lid on my heart
So that I could make it through
But today I’ll open this lid
To go see you there on this day
