Take me somewhere nice, to some tired island,
in your heart-called paradise.
Though we wonder home, we both feel alone,
like escapees with nowhere to go.
I can think of a thousand ways,
to get good and lost beyond these hopeless days.
Where we'll rendezvu, out of the blue,
and take a deep breath, just we do,
and we'll be so far gone, the oars will roll on,
and we will happily wave so long.
If we hook a train, and it tows us back down this open stream, we'll say hello, "oh oh, take us wherever you go".
Take me somewhere deep, 'cause I'm quite exhausted and I need to sleep.
I'll climb the great divide, I'll wake up beside myself just to know I'm alive.
Every wave around, pays me a visit and drags my islands down,
and they sting like growing pains,
iced in the pains that a guy who's not ready to die.
If I may be so bold, I'll weather the cold, 'cause I'm not afraid to grow old.
