No Going back - A refugee's song

I left my home so long ago

My childhood is a distant memory now,

I get the dreams of my lost home

I want to go back, but how?

I cannot go there now, I cannot go there now.

Its been years since I moved away,

I left as my house burned

I travelled through night and day

To reach a place where I could stay

I had a country and I had a song,

But today, to no place do I belong.

Yesterday I had a dream,

I saw houses, I wanted to scream,

Not one of them was mine, not one of them was mine.

how I wish I could live

in a place and truly belong!
