Miles Away From Home

I was born in land far away and was brought up a different way
Packed a suitcase filled with hopes and dreams just me without my family
Had to say goodbye not knowing when I’d see everybody again
So my dreams could become reality if I got an opportunity
Not many dollars in my pocket
just a will to work hard and to give it a shot
Found a place to myself where the big city lights shine bright
I Don’t know anybody but I’ll try and fit in
If I call my family they’ll ask how it is
I just need a chance to find my own way tonight
Moving on miles away to build a life had to fly away
Moving on to another place. Am I going nowhere?
Moving on far away to build my dreams had to fly away
Moving on miles away but I won’t be broken
Now I know it’s hard cause nothing’s easy and loneliness is part of life
I’ve been thinking of this since I was seventeen so it’s gotta be worth a try
Got my first job in a factory and I know this is just a start
Sometimes I know where I’d rather be when I’m I missing my dad and mum
Not much money in my pocket
Just dreams in my heart I gotta start from the start
Now Ive made some friends and they seem to be good to me
And I try so hard to be like them
But sometimes I just gotta pretend
So I’m not completely alone on my journey
Moving on miles away to build a life had to fly away
Moving on to another place. Am I going nowhere?
Moving on far away to build my dreams had to fly away
Moving on miles away but I won’t be broken
Always knew that I would be the one to go away and try to be someone
Yeah I knew that I would be the one to fly away from home
Fly away miles away from home
