Hank:
Sky let me apologize this isn’t easy to say
A sickness has spread throughout our old homestead our folks and friends all passed away
Sky: aahs
Hank:
What Laila was stricken with went on to sicken - all of the people we know
But just keep in mind- if you’re so inclined that you will die if you go
You can't leave here
Chorus:
Sky: Aah, aah, aah, aah
I've got to get out and get back to my home
I’ve got to leave now
And get back where I’m from
No this can’t be true, I don’t believe you, I see through all of your lies
Like how you said that Laila’d be dead unless we left our hills and skies
Hank: That was all true -You must believe when I say you can’t leave
Like our folks- you’ll meet the same fate
Sky: This can’t be real
Hank: So stay with your girley, cuz it’s way too early
to end your life trust me and wait so these wounds can heal
Chorus:
Sky: I've got to get out and get back to my home
This never was never will be my home
I’ve got to go now and get back somehow how,
But Laila seems right at home here
As she paints the sky I wonder how I
Ever could take her from here
I might as well disappear,
There’s nothing left for me here
Chorus:
Sky: Aah, aah, aah, aah
I've got to get out and get back to my home
I’ve got to leave now And get back where I’m from
I’ve got to get back get on back to what’s real
Let me out now
Hank: You just need to heal
Sky: No
