(Lea/Holder)
|
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.
|
|
Chorus
|
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.
