🎵 Lyrics — “When Calcutta Became Home”
(Beautiful moments with Elena exploring Calcutta)

Verse 1
Spices swirling in the morning air,
Vendors laughing everywhere.
Mama’s hand guiding mine,
Through colors that felt warm and kind.

Verse 2
Ringing bells and temple chants,
Children dancing barefoot chants.
She showed me books, she showed me art,
Calcutta whispered to my heart.

Pre-Chorus
Every street had a story to say,
And she made me feel it in her way.
A world so different, wide, and new—
But gentle when she walked me through.

Chorus
That’s when Calcutta became home,
In her arms, I wasn’t alone.
Every corner, every stone—
She painted love in every tone.
Through her eyes, I came to see
This city was a part of me…
That’s when Calcutta became home.

Verse 3
Market colors soaked our clothes,
Laughing till the evening rose.
Mama’s smile was all I knew,
The world was warm when she was too.

Bridge
And now that she’s no longer here,
I walk these streets through memory’s mirror.
Calcutta holds her gentle trace—
I see her in every marketplace.

Final Chorus
That’s when Calcutta became home,
Through her love I came to know.
Even after she has gone,
Her warmth is in the streets I roam.
Calcutta keeps her close to me—
A love that time will never free.
This place became my heart—
This place became my home.
