the fathers take their families away
and they leave it all behind
the children grow up, go back to the motherland
to see what they can find
I discover this concept of home
isn't as easily defined anymore
and I'm torn between
different lands in a shrinking world
take me to a place to call my own
find a land where I'll belong
travel through the corners of this world
one day I'm here, one day I'm gone
how far would you have gone to become
a citizen of ancient Rome
what's the price you'd pay to make
a place of glory your new home
you can't choose where you've been born
but there's a world here to explore
and you're torn between
different lands in a shrinking world
though you want to settle down
you find yourself being moved around
there's still so much left to uncover when
the world is your playground
I'll take you to a place to call your own
find a land where you'll belong
travel through the corners of this world
one day you're here, one day you're gone
