Native old town Witnessed my early, happy days When life was right, staight as a Bible Far and misty Place lost in time Unreal like a fairy tale Once and for all it deeply branded my existence I played down there, prayed down there I loved and I cried I saw it die Proud and quiet I was dreaming of breaking free But my roots ran way too deep Anyway I'm away now I'm going my way now They say I've made it But my loving was way too strong Or maybe I stayed too long Even though I'm away I'll always remain A childhood native New Promised Land Shiny and tempting with its gold Lured me away with all this splendor Just to blind me Somewhere in space I'm searching for my paradise Only to find that I have left it Far behind me I've new flames in new places New face and new name So God tell my why Can't I break this chain I was dreaming.
