Overseas

I lie awake in my bed now
Thinking of something somehow
It's kinda gloomy this morning
Because of the snow last night
I lie awake in my front porch
Looking at Liberty's torch
Why was I here in the first place
In this place where I don't belong?
Three stars to guide my way
And the sun to light the day
All of these make me realize
That I just wanna go back into the Pearl of the Orient Seas
I lie awake in my bathtub
Thinking that my mother's hum
Is better than any American song
I think I wanna return to where I belong
Kiss under mistletoes
And winds blowing when it snows
All these things mean nothing to me
'Cause I just wanna go back into the Pearl of the Orient Seas
Dreams are made of five entities
Three stars, the sun and me
I lie awake by the bedside
Thinking it's gonna be alright
Well, I was never right and I've always been wrong
And I just wanna go back to where I belong
Peace all across the land
From a kiss on grandmother's hand
All I want is to be with these
So I just wanna go back into the Pearl of the Orient
Seas span so many miles
But seas cannot ever hide
All my love for the Philippines
So I just wanna go back into the Pearl of the Orient
I just wanna go back into where it's at
I just wanna go back into the Pearl of the Orient Seas
