Lyrics From Around Here - The Shadowboxers

From Around Here

And I’ve got
Hesitations about it
Cause I won’t belong
With these city songs
Streetlights
Change in time with my mind
But I’ll never know
Unless I go home
You’re calling me back home
And the sunken eyes in the subway lines
And you’re calling me back home
«You are not
From around here are you?»
She said in the checkout line
Where I punched my time
For years and years and years
And I’m not
Who I used to be
But though my colors changed
Truth remains back home
And you’re calling me back home
Where you get lost in the daylight
You’re calling me back home
Where you are from now
Will always be sewn in your heart
But the question remains
Will the stitches heal or will they all fall apart?
Searching for home
And you’re calling me back home
Where you get lost in the daylight
And you’re calling me back home
And you’re calling me back home
