You with the silky hair and a troubled look in your eyes I see you drifting all alone between the crowds you look at me with surprise I once too Was like you A stranger A stranger, I was a stranger in my own home My eyes close as the sweltering air embraces me and i inhale deeply i inhale deeply my eyes still closed the feeling, it takes me back to memories i never had I open my eyes lost, i'm lost, i'm lost between my own people and the heat of the sun is burning my skin my gaze turns upon the skies oh, these clear blue skies and again i look into your eyes I'm home, I'm home a smile appears on my face i smile and breathe deeply i smile to my people to my people to whom i am just another stranger Yes you! don't flee just yet I am home home is inside me smile, show your teeth like me, you too are home just let yourself breathe
