Layers

It was decided – I was on my way

I had my ticket, but no place to stay

Wasn’t used to this maybe – To go by myself

But I would rather fly freely than be stuck on a shelf

(see the people, see the places, see the new sun, in horizons)

I left my luggage in a two star hotel

And all my troubles in a bottomless well

And I felt like a bird every step of the way

And every night like a brand new day

Come along to the places you – don’t understand

It’s a bolder decision to – learn how to fly

If you put your mind to it, just wait for the wind

It’s a long way down if you don’t spread your wings

I put a song from a record on

Did what they told me to; to follow the sun

Couldn’t wait for the rain, to muddle my road

To leave me there, out in the co-cold 

I crash landed in yosemite park

struck diamonds when I looked at the stars

And I felt like a bird every step of the way

And every night like a brand new day

Come along to the places you – don’t understand

It’s a bolder decision to – learn how to fly

If you put your mind to it, just wait for the wind

It’s a long way down if you don’t spread your wings

It fades out – By the kiss of dawn

Stay awake until the bright star – Fades out

It fades out – By the kiss of dawn

By the kiss of dawn x2

(Layer, upon layer x4)

It was decided I was well on my way

had my ticket but no place to stay

I Left my luggage in a two star hotel

and all my troubles in a bottomless well

Come along to the places you dont understand

It’s a bolder decision to learn how to fly

If you put your mind to it – Just wait for the wind

It’s a long way down if you don’t spread your wings – come along x3

(It was decided I was well on my way

had my ticket but no place to stay

felt like a bird every step of the way

And every night like a brand new day)
