Hồ Duy Groove - Fever Dreams in Exile Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Granddaddy's hands showed me steel strings and soul
But these neon streets got me losing control
Ten thousand miles from my Mississippi home
Lord, I'm drifting here, baby, so far gone

[Chorus]
I got those foreign blues, running through my veins
Can't recognize myself, going half-insane
Caught between two worlds, neither one my own
These foreign blues, yeah, they cut right to the bone

[Verse 2]
Strange faces passing by, not a friend in sight
Eastern winds howling through this endless night
Memories of home fade like morning dew
Devil's at my door, and I'm black and blue

[Bridge]
My grandfather said, "Son, keep your spirit strong"
But in this concrete jungle, everything feels wrong
These city lights, they blind my weary eyes
While back home, mama's probably crying

[Verse 3]
Got my slide guitar, but it ain't the same
These streets don't know my face, don't know my name
Every note I play bleeds with this pain
Like a ghost drifting through the pouring rain

[Chorus]
I got those foreign blues, running through my veins
Can't recognize myself, going half-insane
Caught between two worlds, neither one my own
These foreign blues, yeah, they cut right to the bone

[Outro]
Lord have mercy on this wandering soul
'Cause these foreign blues are taking their toll
