lyrics

i don't want a girl like me
i left them all behind back east
i want brown eyes and colored skin
i want my heart to beat within
i turn my back on where i'm from
i breathe new air into my lungs
no snow to melt our hopes and fears
no icicles to freeze our tears

one am we hear a sound
safe in bed we dream of clouds
i see in you a piece of me
or what i could have been at least
no sense at all no lesson learned
just pictures in your memory burned
you and me will never die
i swore to the ueno night
