Holly Henry
The Immigrant
[Verse 1]
I don't quite know what it means
To feel your blood run next to mine
My words have fallen asleep
And my thoughts, they won't align
Yeah, my thoughts, they won't align
I don't think we're in love
Though you tell me that you like me best
You're not who I dream of
But I'm tied to the beating in your chest
The beating in your chest

[Chorus]
So be still, be still
Be still your love, your open heart
'Cause I can't fill it, I can't fill it
So be still, be still
Be still your love, your broken heart
'Cause I will kill it, I will kill it

[Verse 2]
I'm the immigrant
I crossed the border to your heart
Babe, you're my best friend
And I don't want to tear you apart, to tear you apart

[Chorus]
So be still, be still
Be still your love, your open heart
'Cause I can't fill it, I can't fill it
So be still, be still
Be still your love, your broken heart
'Cause I will kill it, I will kill it

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause you're not my home
Yeah, you're not my home
Yeah, you're not my home
Yeah, you're not my home

[Outro]
I'm the immigrant
I crossed the border to your heart
