"I Am From" by Pat Murray

I am from Italian streets, baked bread with a hard crust and a soft center
I am from a breezy shore, sand and sun, endless days and nights of summer
I am from a thousand heartaches and a hundred tears, searching for a place called home
I am from laughter and joy and sorrow and pain and back again
I am from a town called old fashioned and a city called wild
I am from a long lost time forgotten in memory, too hard to remember, too painful to forget.
