Embracing Change: The Vibrant Journey of a Newcomer in Montreal
Lyrics
It's been a month since I moved to Montreal
Reflecting on one month since moving to Montreal
I've never seen a city
Expressing awe at the beauty of the city in the Fall
That looks this damn good in Fall
Appreciating the changing scenery with the leaves
The leaves and I are changing
Metaphorically connecting personal change with autumn leaves
As October makes its way in
Acknowledging the arrival of October
I think I'm gonna like it here
Expressing optimism about enjoying life in Montreal
I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-Walked through the Old Port last week
Describing a walk through the Old Port area
I felt like the protagonist of a European movie
Feeling like a character in a European movie
But then I almost tripped over a pylon and
Encountering a moment of clumsiness with a pylon
A construction worker laughed at me
Experiencing laughter from a construction worker
I think I'm gonna like it here
Reiterating the anticipation of liking life in Montreal
I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-Like it here
Repeating the sentiment of liking it in Montreal
And I know that nothing's perfect
Acknowledging imperfections in the city and unmet expectations
Yeah, every city has its flaws
-And the friends I've met here told me
-It's not all that I dreamt of
-Like Jamie got followed home at four pm in Verdun
Sharing incidents of friends facing challenges in the city
And Cass almost got punched in the face at
-Beaudry Station
-And similar things may happen to me
-It's a scary world out there you see
-And I'm far from home
Feeling distant from home, noting challenges in adapting
There's no ocean close
-And my French is gross
-But I think that I still
-think I'm gonna like it here
Despite challenges, maintaining a positive outlook
I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-I think I'm gonna like it here
-Like it here
Repeating the belief in liking it in Montreal
Jamie got followed home at four pm in Verdun
Reiterating challenges faced by friends and expressing personal concerns
And Cass almost got punched in the face at
-Beaudry Station
-And similar things may happen to me
-It's a scary world out there you see
-And I'm far from home
-There's no ocean close
-And my French is gross
-But I think that I still
Affirming the belief in still liking life in Montreal
