Being so far, so far apart, it pulls and tugs up on my heart

I yearn to go to the land I know, to run and smile in a place I did grow

I run with arms that open wide and see so much love on every side

my friends and folks are so full of charm

we run, we laugh, link arm and arm

I love to see my family so dear, to hold them tight, to hold them near

they are my bond, my one true love

we share a life sent from above.
