My Mother's Hometown
Pink Angels

I lived and learned

In what we called the South.

I cried and

I lied

But then, that's understandable

Because

[Chorus:]

I was only happy where I belonged

And

I belonged in my mother's hometown

Summer nights were spent

Outside

Catching little fireflies

And then we let them all drift away.

Late one fall

I caught the cold

And my aunt she stayed up

Waiting for my fever to break.

But we both knew that she told

My family I was better

Three days late.

[Chorus:]

I got my hair streaked

Blonde one year,

And let me tell you

It spread from mouth to ear.

But even though I got some stares

When I visited they didn't seem to care.

[Chorus:]

I remember growing up

Watching my aunt sewing

And I would think

One day, that'll be me.

But I grew up and went away

I chose another path.

But my heart aches

For that side of the globe.

And I know that

When my job is done

I'll be the very first one

On that plane and

Leaving this city.

Cause the only place where

I'll be happy

And my soul will be free

Is when I come home

To that place where I belong.

My mother's

Oh in my mother's hometown.
