Bloodlines Lyrics - Tanita Tikaram

You can't call hell 

A quiet town 

But you walked so shell-shocked 

Have you found a way to stand? Your head is high 

You have, oh, such curious hands 

Did they mention? 

Special faces 

And your young mind 

And foreign places 

And I wonder 

Where you come from 

I know they have no answers 

But their bloodlines 

Can you call? 

This land a friend 

You looked so hopeful 

Have you found a way to send this soul 

Oh, such a curious end 

For this sadness 

Am I made strong? 

For my sadness 

Must be shared by someone 

And I wonder 

Where you come from 

I know I have no answers 

But my bloodlines 

To know that I am not the only one 

To know that my love is for everyone 

To hold it in my heart 

To hold it in my heart 

To hold it in my heart 

And I wonder 

Where you come from 

I know I have no answers 

But my bloodlines
