Runaway (Aurora Cover)

Just me practicing a song by Aurora that I like very much and has been in the past one of those tracks that touches my heart deeply.

Lyrics:

I was listenin' to the ocean
I saw a face in the sand
But when I picked it up
Then it vanished away from my hands, da-da
I had a dream I was seven
Climbing my way in a tree
I saw a piece of heaven
Waiting impatient for me, da-da
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
I was dancing in the rain
I felt alive and I can't complain
But now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I can't take it anymore
I was painting a picture
The picture was a painting of you
And for a moment I thought you were here
But then again, it wasn't true, da-da
And all this time I have been lying
Oh, lying in secret to myself
I've been putting sorrow on the farthest place on my shelf
La-di-da
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
I was dancing in the rain
I felt alive and I can't complain
But now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
Now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
Now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I can't take it anymore

Well, there's more to the song but this is as far as I have practiced it and I thought this reccording wasn't so bad. Feel free to give me tips on singing as I am just a beginner and want to improve :)

I like the song because I've always felt a bit out of place in this world, like there's somewhere else where I belong and one day I will finally be allowed to exist in that place. I try to take this life as lightly as I can and see things positively but sometimes this sense of nostalgia invades me.
