​immigrant’s tale lyrics

[Intro]
This is a story of a girl
One who never saw the world
Beyond the walls of Jericho
A fairytale yet to be told

[Verse 1]
Planned to be the first to leave
Before her innocence is sold
Now those days are out of reach
Her hands were forced to let them go

[Chorus]
There she goes again
Craving the attention of a stranger
See the child within
Living out a fantasy that she once had
She once had

[Verse 2]
In foreign lands, they speak her name
Whisper words to her return
And though her smile could bring her fame
They say the beauty was her curse

[Chorus]
There she goes again
Craving the attention of a stranger
See the child within
Living out a fantasy that she once had
She once had
She once had
[Outro]
This is a story of a girl
Who grew too old to roam the world
