Homesickness

Its Christmas time.Its that time of year when everyone is at home with their families celbrating the birth of Christ. Sadly this year that is not the case with me. Although we do not celebrate Christmas at home, there is a feeling of homesickness inside of me right now.All my friends are back home with their families and sadly I am sitting here at home all alone yearning to be with mine too 4000 kms away dreaming of home.

I hear the mountain birds
The sound of rivers singing
A song I've often heard
It flows through me now
So clear and so loud
I stand where I am
And forever I'm dreaming of home
I feel so alone, I'm dreaming of home

It's carried in the air
The breeze of early morning
I see the land so fair
My heart opens wide

There's sadness inside
I stand where I am
And forever I'm dreaming of home
I feel so alone, I'm dreaming of home

This is no foreign sky
I see no foreign light
But far away am I
From some peaceful land
I'm longing to stand
A hand in my hand
Forever I'm dreaming of home.
