[00:17.31] Sand in my hair
[00:19.78] And sand in almost everything I own
[00:24.41] Birds wheeling high in the sky
[00:26.82] But don't know which way to fly, which way to go
[00:30.73]
[00:31.94] Well I'm standing here
[00:34.50] Just looking at the sea
[00:36.66] Trying to wonder whether it sits for me
[00:39.98] Or not at all
[00:44.11] No one wants to change it
[00:45.61]
[00:48.86] So many people, so many people
[00:51.63] May sit around and moan
[00:55.40] But you're not, you're not, you're not
[00:57.45] Going to find it very far away from home
[01:00.43]
[01:03.48] I've been looking here
[01:05.49] Trying to realize
[01:07.76] Whether it's something that I could compromise
[01:11.08] Or not at all
[01:14.13] But nobody really wants to change it
[01:16.44]
[01:20.17] Call me anything
[01:22.62] Call me a fool
[01:24.39] Call me what you want
[01:26.00] But just stay cool, stay cool, stay cool, stay cool
[01:31.82]
[02:07.39] I'm standing here
[02:08.44] Trying to mesmerize
[02:10.35] wondering, wondering if the people realize
[02:13.66] Or not at all
[02:16.18] But nobody really wants to ever change it
[02:20.95]
[02:22.45] So many people
[02:25.11] Sit and ask me why
[02:29.52] But I'm just keeping hold of the seeds
[02:32.13] Until the day I die
[02:34.34]
[02:37.25] Sitting here
[02:38.81] I'm trying to realize
[02:41.27] If it's really worth it
[02:42.94] Or whether I should make out to disguise about it
[02:48.71] If there's no way at all
