[Verse 1]
I was searching for that pot of gold
Couldn't find a thing in darkness
I was waiting till the light would shine on me
And I was waiting hours
I sat patient by the window
Telling myself fortune would come my way easily
And every night I wondered
How can it be that people act and think so different than me

[Chorus]
I belong where the palm trees grow
I belong where the palm trees grow, palm trees grow

[Verse 2]
It felt so cold in July
Saw the rain and wind and thunderstorms falling down on me
And no more will I wonder
About how the things get better or maybe less disturbing in a way

[Chorus]
I belong where the palm trees grow
I belong where the palm trees grow, palm trees grow

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
I belong where the palm trees grow
I belong where the palm trees grow, palm trees grow
