If I want I could move these walls past my door to a better place I feel like there's a wind that could catch all my fingers, fly away Past towers of iron and cement touching sky over rivers continents wide Onto rolling walls with billions inside, augment my view of life, white cliffs isle's east side Blue fields of five waving patiently while I slide into new scapes of change
Because tomorrow I'll be gone And all that now surrounds me will keep moving on When I look back what will I see Will I have learned a lesson, something I believe
Give me a journey Show me all the colors of life Give me the distance Show me a way to navigate this world Give me a journey Show me the road that I should take There is no reason To be stuck in just one place
Give me the journey Paint with the watercolors of life Give me the distance To walk the image I create Give me the journey Show me the road that I should take There is no reason To be stuck in just one place
Keys unlock the plain to golden gates that lock again a violent bay Where will I land and what will fill my eyes - who will I be each time that I arrive Blades of grass cutting lines in the dirt and burnt goodbyes I've seen that star it guides my night By sea or land, shifting air, how I move I don't care Kiss me soft let me go, breathe in me the place you know - I want to know it too (spoken)
Out of the window there's a scene I seem to have seen each morning White circles, red squares, I bet you don't see this everywhere Sure I learn and like and am the things that fill this street But could you be content knowing each day these moments just repeat So a thought, a pass, a plane, a ticket marked with ink by name A taxi pull, a plastic tray folded upright till we leave the runway
Way above the clouds Freedom's pure when you don't hold out Watch the weight of all you've known Pass right under where you've flown And all the things that seemed to matter Grow much smaller worn and weathered Final approach, we're going down Prepare to land on foreign ground Way above the clouds Freedom's pure when you don't hold out Watch the weight of all you've known Crash and burn somewhere below Crash and burn without a sound
Off the wing it looks the same till clouds give way A new domain beckons me to play A new song, new life, new ways to fly Grab on, hold tight, It's gonna be a wild ride
I wanna fly far away Wanna see a different place Where to go, I don't know There is so much left to see - so
I don't know where to go from here I don't know where to roam What will I see tomorrow Where will I sleep tonight Who will I meet tomorrow And who will I kiss goodbye
I don't know where to go from here Still don't know who I am In spite of all my travels In spite of all I've seen My mind replays the memories And you can't take that from me
But who knows where to go from here And who cares where I go, do I have to know Where this road's leading, no place to sleep tonight The sun just keeps repeating its pattern in the sky
Give me the journey Paint with all the colors of life I'll walk the distance To live on the canvas that I stain With every memory Coursing through my veins There's just a brush And I am the world it paints
Tell me where to go from here Tell me I can stay so I see you tomorrow I'll sleep with you tonight If I have to go tomorrow Then I kiss your lips goodbye
I don't want to go from here And will you understand when you wake up And I'm not there in the middle of the night These eyes have yet to see what's under all these skies
Give me the journey Pour out the colors of my life I see the distance In the mirror passing by Give me my journey In every shade and stride There is no reason Why our worlds should collide
All I've seen and all I've come to know has carved me With patterns you can trace to realize our differences Are not for the better or the worse they simply just are Taught in miles, learned by path, leave it on my epitaph Embrace each uncomfortable moment then relax The news alive and educates he who doesn't wait But packs willing to return to the same space
For the first time I am living In colors I'm picking But you keep on stalling What cha gonna be if your never see
For the first time You're given A fresh pallet You're mixing But you can't keep on slipping Back into the place that cha cant leave
I wanna stay in a place And I must appreciate Where I've been, what I've seen Even though they're different things - and
Now that we've found common ground I have a way to understand What you are, how you work What defines a peoples worth - now
I close my eyes, fall asleep Knowing I fulfilled my dream Now it's your time to fly See the world with open eyes
