I was searching for that pot of gold Couldn't find a thing in darkness I was waiting till the light would shine on me And I was waiting hours I sat patient by the window telling myself fortune would come my way easily And every night I wondered How can it be that people act and think so different than me I belong where the palm trees grow I belong where the palm trees grow It felt so cold in July Saw the rain and wind and thunderstorms falling down on me And no more will I wonder About how the things get better or maybe less disturbing in a way I belong where the palm trees grow I belong where the palm trees grow
