Neighbor

You don’t know me
I am a stranger
I am a daughter
I am a son

Pleased to meet you
If you’ll make my acquaintance
Don’t be frightened
I have nothing to hide

We might be different
But I am your neighbor
There’s things about me
You may not understand
Don’t be afraid
Fear leads to hate
Let’s turn the tide and wash away lines in the sand

You don’t see me
But I have my dreams too
Just like your dreams
They’ve traveled so far

Your constellations
They are my constellations
Here now together
We count the same stars

We might be different
But I am your neighbor
There’s things about me
You may not understand
Don’t be afraid
Fear leads to hate
Let’s turn the tide and wash away lines in the sand

We might be different
But I am your neighbor
There’s things about me
You may not understand
Don’t be afraid
Fear leads to hate
Let’s turn the tide and wash away lines in the sand

You don’t know me
I am a stranger
I am a daughter
I am a son

Pleased to meet you
