I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi |
|
I've seen the bridges of the world and they're for real |
|
I've had a red light of the wrist without me |
|
Even gettin' kissed, it still seems so unreal |
|
I've seen the morning in the mountains of Alaska |
|
I've seen the sunset in the east and in the west |
|
I've sang the glory that was Rome and passed the |
|
Hound dog singer's home, it still seems for the best |
|
And I'm far, far away with my head up in the clouds |
|
And I'm far, far away with my feet down in the crowds |
|
Lettin' loose around the world but the call of home |
|
Is loud still as loud |
|
I've seen the Paris lights from high upon Montmartre |
|
And felt the silence hanging low in no mans land |
|
And all those Spanish nights were fine |
|
It wasn't only from the wine, it still seems all in hand |
|
I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi |
|
The grand Bahama island stories carry on |
|
And all those arigato smiles stay in your memory |
|
For a while, there still seems more to come |
|
And I'm far, far away with my head up in the clouds |
|
And I'm far, far away with my feet down in the crowds |
|
And I'm far, far away but the sound of home |
|
Is loud still as loud |
