immigrant's tale

This is a story of a girl

One who never saw the world

Beyond the walls of Jericho

A fairytale yet to be told

Planned to be the first to leave

Before her innocence is sold

Now those days are out of reach

Her hands were forced to let them go

There she goes again

Craving the attention of a stranger

See the child within

Living out a fantasy that she once had

She once had

In foreign lands, they speak her name

Whisper words to her return

And though her smile could bring her fame

They say the beauty was her curse

There she goes again

Craving the attention of a stranger

See the child within

Living out a fantasy that she once had

She once had

She once had

This is a story of a girl

Who grew too old to roam the world
