I'M Homesick

I’m homesick for places I haven’t yet been Places unpronounceable are calling my name My eyes crave the beauty of sights I have not seen A fire I can’t see warms me with its flame My feet walk the same path when I leave and come back And my ears get tired of the same boring tune Where once there was nothing I’ve worn down a track Where street lights are so bright I can’t see the moon I’m homesick for places away from my own Places that make my heart feel alive Where the people are friendly and my name is not known Places that give me the change to thrive You can tell my I’m crazy but I’ll never forget, I’m homesick for places I haven’t been yet
