home - anna smyrk lyrics

Loading...

ask the grandmothers at marovo lagoon
they’ll say
“daughter, the water is rising.”

ask the young men who fish down in the bay
they’ll say
“sister, the weather is changing

but you, you can go home.”

everyone here comes from some other place
and they’ll tell you
as soon as they meet you

“my mother’s makira, my father’s marau
and i’ll go, soon as i can afford to

oh yes, i’ll go home
can’t wait to go home.”

we drove out one sunday to visale beach
to find
all of the sand had eroded

and people spilled out of the church doors
at noon
and rose voices to heavens exalted
singing, “go home
oh lord, let us go home.”

as soon as i set one foot down in a place
i am thinking
of what’s round the corner

i’ve stumbled my way around half of the world
and i’m still not quite sure
what i’m after

maybe i should just go home
