Suitcase From Sudan

Paroles

[Verse 1] Started with a suitcase, heart full of pain, Watching my whole life fade through the airplane. Window seat tears while the city got small, Never knew leaving home could hurt this hard at all. From Sudan where the sun hit the streets, Where the family stayed close and the nights never sleep. Where the laughter felt warm and the food hit different, Now I’m far away feeling homesick every minute. I remember old roads and the dust in the air, Friends on the corner acting like we had no cares. Every [Pre-Chorus] Every phone call cuts deep When the silence won’t leave I keep saying I’m fine But I’m not, can’t you see? [Chorus] From Sudan, from Sudan I still reach for your hand From Sudan, from Sudan I carry home in my chest From Sudan, from Sudan Even far, I still stand From Sudan, from Sudan That’s the place I won’t forget (From Sudan) [Verse 2] Every market sound lives under my skin, Every prayer at dusk still pulls me back in. I can smell that smoke from the roadside grills, Hear my mother’s voice like it never stays still. I learned love there, I learned pain there too, I learned how to miss what I thought I outgrew. Now the nights feel long in this foreign bed, But the old names stay loud in my head. [Pre-Chorus] Every phone call cuts deep When the silence won’t leave I keep saying I’m fine But I’m not, can’t you see? [Chorus] From Sudan, from Sudan I still reach for your hand From Sudan, from Sudan I carry home in my chest From Sudan, from Sudan Even far, I still stand From Sudan, from Sudan That’s the place I won’t forget (From Sudan) [Bridge] If I close my eyes, I’m back there again Bare feet on the ground, same sun on my skin Tell the ones I love I’m still holding on I’m gone from the map, but my heart stays home [Final Chorus] From Sudan, from Sudan I still reach for your hand From Sudan, from Sudan I carry home in my chest From Sudan, from Sudan Even far, I still stand From Sudan, from Sudan That’s the place I won’t forget (From Sudan)
