India Lyrics

Through the market stalls I saw her silhouette
Careful of her fathers glance
Working after school for the family
A world away from me
She took that chance
A girl from India is my surprise
Silk and saffron soul against my polythene life
A girl from India has stolen my heart
She whispers quiet answers she knows to be true
Into my worried mind

Sometimes I go indigo
No sense in anything I hear
The five o'clock news
Foreign blues
I used to let it all get through
Before there was you
A girl from India say "here is home"
She brings me sanity through all the madness I've known
A girl from India has changed my life
She whispers quiet answers she knows to be true
In these uncertain times
A girl from India is my surprise
Jade and Jasmine breathes life into my carbon monoxide
A girl from India has stolen my heart
She whispers quiet askings she knows I will do
Ease my troubled mind
