LEAVING YOUR ROOTS
Their pictures hanging on the wall
Paint the story of a hundred faces
The sparkle shining from my eyes
Should show you that I've traveled to so many places
I've been to France
I've been to Italy
But I'll never tell a soul
Just what that did to me
The fact that I ended up back here
Without reasons explained may seem unclear
Yet in order to clarify... you may ask me to verify...
But I cannot certify ... that I have been purified
The pictures hanging on the wall
Paint the story of a hundred faces
The sparkle shining from my eyes
Should show you that I've traveled to so many places
Sometimes it's hard to leave your roots
Especially in the name of such trivial pursuits
Sometimes it's hard to leave your roots
Especially in the name of such trivial pursuits
Sometimes it's hard to leave your roots
(leaving your roots)
Especially in the name of such trivial pursuits
(trivial pursuits)
Sometimes it's hard to leave your roots
(leaving your roots)
Especially in the name of such trivial,
trivial pursuits...
