lyrics

I don’t know where my mind’s been living
It’s probably hiding miles beneath the sea
Catching a ride on a seahorse procession
Chasing the turtles under the coral reef

It feels like I’m not really sitting at this table
Think I’m floating high above the clouds
I see a silhouette through the first class window
Blue ocean and sky are the same
It sure was a big airplane

Oh, how I wonder about everyone around me
How they stay in the fast lane
Cars swerving, mouths moving, money stacking
Light up the room with a computer screen

I’m gonna meet you in the jungles of Asia
We’ll shed the city from our bones
There are temples of worship to visit
Never again lover will you travel alone
