Bread And Bones - I Was Not Born Here lyrics

I was not born here Another place can make that claim Some people start one place and then they roam Not a native, I'm a migrant But I've lived here most my life This is where I mean when I say home When I say home It's not a postcard in my mind It's the place where I'm now living Not a place I left behind When I say home I know where I want to be Everybody feels the need to have a home And it's not perfect There's no perfection in this world Everyone could find a thing that they would change We could argue about the politics, the policies and all But in the end what really matters would remain When I say home It's not a postcard in my mind It's the place where I'm now living Not a place I left behind When I say home I know where I want to be Everybody feels the need to have a home And I've family from Ireland From England and from Spain I've maybe got some native blood in Moor Five hundred years, a hundred years, a thousand years ago We all were migrants who lived somewhere else before When I say home It's not a postcard in my mind It's the place where I'm now living Not a place I left behind When I say home I know where I want to be Everybody feels the need to have a home When I say home It's not a postcard in my mind It's the place where I'm now living Not a place I left behind When I say home I know where I want to be Everybody feels the need to have a home Everybody feels the need Everybody feels the need to have a home
