Seventeen and she's flyin
To a land so far away
Heart's heavy
Tears dryin
But dreams in her eyes
They stay
New streets feel so busy
Crowded skies and neon light
But inside she feels dizzy
Old life fades outta sight
Missin' the home she knew
But finding a new one too
Chasin' dreams so true
With skies painted in blue
The nights feel so lonely
Stars so distant
Far and wide
But she's never the only
Girl with dreams in her eyes
Letters from the homeland
Whispers from her past
Pictures in her hand
She knows these homes won't last
Missin' the home she knew
But finding a new one too
Chasing dreams so true
With skies painted in blue
