Olivia Dean - Carmen

First time on a plane
18, you came
You found a door and held it open

No way to know how to make a home
In someone else's motherland

You transplanted a family tree
And a part of it grew into me

You're stronger than I'll ever be
Never got a jubilee
I'll throw it for you, Carmen, Carmen
I will

The only place I wanna stand
Holding on to grandma's hands
Let them adore you, Carmen, Carmen
I will

Carmen, Carmen

Look at all the trouble that you made
Carved your initials in this island
But the Weetabix don't taste the same
And we're all talking to our phones

But you reigned over a family tree
And I'll carefully carry the seeds

You're stronger than I'll ever be
Never got a jubilee
I'll throw it for you, Carmen, Carmen
I will

The only place I wanna stand
Holding on to grandma's hands
Let them adore you, Carmen, Carmen
I will

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen
I will

You're stronger than I'll ever be
Never got a jubilee
I'll throw it for you, Carmen, Carmen
I will

The only place I wanna stand
Holding on to grandma's hands
Let them adore you, Carmen, Carmen
I will

Carmen, Carmen
I'm still
Carmen
I will
Carmen, Carmen
I'm still, I'm still, oh

(Carmen, Carmen
Carmen, Carmen)

Stronger than I'll ever be
(Carmen, Carmen
Carmen, Carmen)
Carmen, Carmen
I will

Only place I wanna stand
Carmen, Carmen
I will

Carmen, Carmen
I'm still
Carmen
I will

Carmen, Carmen
I'm still, I'm still, oh
