I count the days for myself
With my suitcase packed
There was almost no room left for the longing piled up
From the blue I see the garden
Even from behind the wing
Mom, look out the window, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
No matter how it might seem
I'll never belong to that city
The sea of people, the different sun, the concrete hill
Doesn't stir anything in me
Doesn't call me home
Verse 1
Because I
Came from far away, I came from the middle of the sea, in the heart
Verse 1
Of the ocean, I've got my whole life
I walk my path thinking
About coming back
Verse 1
To my home, island, peace, Madeira
If I explain it to you word for word
You'll never get the pain that quiets me
The loneliness that haunts the moment of departure
I carry the calm of knowing I can return
Mom, look out the window, I'm arriving
No matter how it might seem
I'll never belong to that city
The sea of people, the different sun, the concrete hill
Doesn't stir anything in me
It doesn't ca-a-a-a-aall me
A sea of people, the different sun, the concrete hill
Doesn't stir anything in me
Doesn't call me home

SONG MEANING

Deslocado is a heartfelt postcard from the sky, sent by a traveler whose suitcase is packed with more saudade than clothes. While looking down at a garden of clouds and counting the minutes to landing, the singer dreams of the moment her mother appears at the window. The throng of strangers, the alien sunshine, and the towering concrete of the big city all fail to spark any sense of belonging. Her roots lie far away, in the middle of the Atlantic, on the emerald slopes of Madeira—an island that keeps calling her name.

With its hypnotic repetitions and vivid imagery, the song turns homesickness into a gentle anthem. NAPA captures the bittersweet mix of pain and hope that shadows every departure: the loneliness of leaving, the comfort of knowing you can always return, and the unbreakable bond between child and homeland. Anyone who has ever felt out of place will recognise the promise carried in these lines: no matter how distant the journey, home is waiting just beyond the next horizon.
