From faraway

Baby, I came from far away.

From where the sun

never shines at day.

Up there it’s so cold,

everybody’s so old

that I’m looking for you,

that I’m looking for youth.

 

I ain’t gonna tell you that’s good.

I ain’t gonna tell you that’s bad.

I just want you to know

that my body is alone and sad.

 

My body feels the heat

sometimes, of the stars at night

then feels the cold rain dropping by.

 

But I am sick of searching

all through this land

a loving caressing hand.

 

Oh, how I wish to feel

that strange thrill

that so many people describe to me:

a loving hand caressing my hand,

my body, taking care.
