I was born right by the mountain
From a place where eagles would sore
Now I´m saying goodbye to my hometown
I´m going where I never been before
See my daddy was a farmer and mama see was a nurse

Told me stories about the world, I´m about to find what it´s worth
Mama don´t you cry, daddy please just say goodbye
Cause, I´ve gotta live before I die, but I´ll be coming back home soon
(But I´ll be coming back home soon)

Now I´m standing by the streetlights, not sure if I really belong
Though my trouble days may come, I know I gotta go on
I´ve gotta live my life in colors, no more living in black and white
I´ve gotta learn to live my life, I´ve gotta learn to stand and fight
Sister don´t you cry, brother I will be alright
Cause I´ve gotta live before I die, but I´ll be coming back home soon

(But I´ll be coming back home soon)

So many years past and I´ve been waiting for so long to see my papa
I can´t wait to see his eyes
So many years past and I´ve been dreaming for so long to see my mama
I can´t wait to see her smile
Because I´ve lived before I die and I come back home to you
