Not my best work, nor my longest... But it means quite a bit to me.


Foreign
-----------------------------------

Lost in a strange land,
A place she can't call home.
Nobody around to give her a hand,
Oh, she feels so alone.

Stuck in this strange place,
She doesn't know her role.
The pain doesn't show on her face,
But it burns in her soul.

Friends and family are miles away,
Along with the one she loves.
For the time being, here she must stay,
Her fears, she must rise above.

(Chorus)
Foreign girl, in this strange land,
Take my hand, I'll help you stand.
Lead you from this misery,
I'll try my best to set you free.

Friends she has made,
She no longer walks alone,
Friends she must leave,
It has been set in stone.

As she boards the plane,
Bound for her true home,
She carries a picture of her friends,
She is no longer alone.

Friends she has made,
Friends she left behind.
Even though she couldn't stay,
She's still here, in my mind.

(Chorus)
Foreign girl, in this strange land,
Take my hand, I'll help you stand.
Lead you from this misery,
I'll try my best to set you free.
