Lyrics

I was just 10 years old
Lived outside the city so far away
I messed it up a bunch of times
I never stayed inside the lines
I never stayed inside the lines, I tried
Tried to make in right
Got inside the truck
It took me two days to get there
And I knew this wasn't fare, but I ran away
From what I knew, into the unknown
Let me explain
How I ran away
There were two men buying oranges to sell in the city
I helped them out, showed them the way
Everything was sorted out but without letting them know
I hid myself away, between their oranges
Without saying goodbye
Barefoot and all alone, not knowing later I would cry
Only certain of one thing
In two days I would reach, the final destination
The city
Years went by quickly
But I'm where I've always wanted to be
Once a boy now a family man
How I wish you could see
Still in the city
With her arms always open to me
Never left and I never will
Wonder if you missed me
I know I've found love
And she is the girl of my dreams
Without this city I wouldn't have known
What was waiting for me
Still in the city
With her arms always open to me
Never left and I never will
Wonder if you missed me
