Verse1a
One day you'll see her and you'll know what I mean
Take her or leave her, she will still be the same
Verse1b
She'll not try to buy you with her time
But nothing's the same, as you will see when she's gone
Chorus
It's foreign on this side, and I'll not leave my home again
There's no place to hide, and I'm nothing but scared
Guitar plays Intro2 while mandolin plays Intro1
Verse2
You dream of colors that have never been made
You imagine songs that have never been played
They will try to find you and your mind
But only the curious have something to find
Chorus2
It's foreign on this side, and the truth is a bitter friend
Reasons few have I, to go back again

Verse3
Your first dawn blinded you, left you cursing the day
Entrance is crucial and it's not without pain
There's no path to follow once you're here
You'll climb up the slide and then you'll slide down the stairs
Chorus3
It's foreign on this side
But it feels like I'm home again
There's no place to hide
But I don't think I'm scared
There's no place to hide
But I don't think I'm scared
There's no place to hide
But I don't think I'm scared
