Lyrics
thank you, stranger,
Expressing gratitude to an unknown person
for being close to me
Thanking them for being emotionally close
thank you, stranger,
Reiterating thanks for the unknown person's assistance
for your help to me.
Gratefulness for the help received
when my home’s away,
Referring to being away from home
while the sky’s on fire.
Amidst turbulent or distressing times
when my home’s away
Reiteration of being away from home
Be close when im crying?
Desire for emotional support during times of sadness
i saw closeness
Observation of intimacy transcending boundaries
without borders.
Witnessing inclusivity and acceptance
i saw open doors
Noticing opportunities (open doors) alongside welcoming attitudes
next to open hearts.
Emphasizing open-heartedness in tandem with openness
when we dine together
Sharing meals together fosters a connection
I feel your hearts.
Sensing emotional connection during shared experiences
neighbors became family
Neighbors forming bonds akin to family due to active involvement
since they took part.
Community involvement leading to a sense of kinship
thank you, dear friend,
Thanking a close friend for their support
for staying close to me.
Expressing gratitude for ongoing emotional proximity
But every single dawn
A longing for home, expressed every morning
I dream of my return.
Yearning to return to one's place of origin
one day I'll get on a train
Anticipating a future journey back home
home to my Ukraine.
Specifically mentioning returning to Ukraine
and I'll call my new friends
Intending to reconnect with newfound friends upon return
to have dinner again.
Planning to share meals again with these friends
