Third Culture Kid
I was born to a family of four
In a hospital room near Norfolk, VA, where my father was raised
And I cried all day, I cried all night
Was a baby when we moved away, but oh the fright
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid
We stayed in France ten years or so
But when we went Stateside, my folks said, "We're going home"
"I feel more at home in France than here"
I thought to myself every single year
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid
We moved back to VA two years on the dot
I told you, France, I'd miss ya', and I missed you a lot
This wasn't America as I'd known it to be
This would never be home, at least not to me
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid
We moved back to Europe, but not where I called home
That wasn't where God wanted us to go
In Belgium six years I learnt who I was and what I loved
But that wasn't all of me, or the end, and it wasn't enough
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid
I graduated high school 2010, in June
I moved off to college, but I still sing the same tune
I'm finding new things, learning about myself every day
Though I'm growing so much I still gotta' say
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid
In a hospital room near Norfolk, VA, where my father was raised
And I cried all day, I cried all night
Was a baby when we moved away, but oh the fright
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid
We stayed in France ten years or so
But when we went Stateside, my folks said, "We're going home"
"I feel more at home in France than here"
I thought to myself every single year
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid
We moved back to VA two years on the dot
I told you, France, I'd miss ya', and I missed you a lot
This wasn't America as I'd known it to be
This would never be home, at least not to me
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid

That wasn't where God wanted us to go
In Belgium six years I learnt who I was and what I loved
But that wasn't all of me, or the end, and it wasn't enough
And I don't know where home is

Though I'm growing so much I still gotta' say
And I don't know where home is
So many places and I'm
Left with a void that none can fill
Such is the life of a third culture kid
