[Verse 1]
You're beautiful, that's for sure
You'll never ever fade
You're lovely, but it's not for sure
That I won't ever change

[Pre-Chorus]
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true, woah-oh

[Chorus]
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
(And baby, all I need for you to know is)
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is, yeah

[Verse 2]
Your faith in me brings me to tears
Even after all these years
And it pains me so much to tell
That you don't know me that well

[Pre-Chorus]
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true, woah-oh

[Chorus]
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
And baby, all I need for you (To know is)
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
(Baby, all I need for you to know is)

[Bridge]
It's not that I wanna say goodbye
It's just that every time you try
To tell me, me that you love me, oh, oh
Each and every single day
I know I'm gonna have to eventually
Give you away, yeah, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
And though my love is rare, rare, rare, rare
And though my love is true, yeah
Yeah, I'm just scared
That we may fall through-ough-ough-ough
Yeah

[Chorus]
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
And baby, all I need for you to (Know is)
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
Baby, all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird
(I don't know where my soul is) Soul is
(I don't know where my home is)
And baby, all I need for you to know is
(I don't know where my soul is)
I don't know where my soul is
(I don't know where my home is)
I don't know where my home is

Alessia Caracciolo is a singer-songwriter from Brampton, Ontario, Canada. Upon the release of her first single, “Here”, she shortened her last name because it was “so long and spelled crazy.”

She first started to gain popularity when she posted a cover of Justin Timberlake’s “Mirrors.” Soon after, her cover of The Neighbourhood’s “Sweater Weather” took off. These covers got her signed to EP Entertainment and later, Def Jam.

Her first single, “Here” premiered on The FADER on April 27th, 2015, and blew up soon after. Just four months later, the song racked up 18 million Spotify streams in addition to 4.5 million views on its official video.
