Second Home Songtext
von Leslie Fish

Long through the dark my orbit I rolled
All waterless desert and waterless cold
Waiting for changes through ages untold
To me, welcome, welcome to your second home

Sing along with the chorus, go ahead

Scarce was the life I nurtured at all
Changelessly simple and changelessly small
Waiting for hope from heaven to fall
To me, welcome, welcome, to your second home

Fortunate sister, so richly endowed
Be not too selfish and be not too proud
To send me some children: a trickle, a crowd
To me, welcome, welcome, to your second home


Venturesome fosterlings coming at last
Breaking my silence from long ages past
To this bare breast I bid you hold fast
To me, welcome, welcome to your second home

I am not easy, I put you to test
Show me your willingness, show me your best
For long must you labor before you can rest
To me, welcome, welcome, to your second home

Come dress me in green, come cover my scars
And I′ll set you well on the road to the stars
Accept from my bedrock the blessings of Mars
To me, welcome, welcome, to your second
Welcome, welcome, to your second
Welcome, welcome, to your second home
