I'm Not from Here

I'm not from here; please help me out
I didn't grow up around here
Is it my eyes that give me away?
Or is it just the tears?

I shouldn't be so lost
But I know not what these things cost
So please let me be to you ever near
Although I'm not from here

I'm not from here; excuse me please
Pardon my ignorance, dear
I just don't get the lingo you speak
To me it all sounds Greek

I shouldn't be so lost
But I never learned what these things cost
So please let me be to you ever near
Although I'm not from here
