I took off for a weekend last month
|
Just to try and recall the whole year.
|
All of the faces and all of the places,
|
wonderin' where they all disappeared.
|
I didn't ponder the question too long;
|
I was hungry and went out for a bite.
|
Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum,
|
and we wound up drinkin' all night.
|
|
It's those changes in latitudes,
|
changes in attitudes nothing remains quite the same.
|
With all of our running and all of our cunning,
|
If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes,
|
Nothing remains quite the same.
|
Through all of the islands and all of the highlands,
|
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane
|
|
Reading departure signs in some big airport
|
Reminds me of the places I've been.
|
Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure
|
Makes me want to go back again.
|
If it suddenly ended tomorrow,
|
I could somehow adjust to the fall.
|
Good times and riches and son of a bitches,
|
I've seen more than I can recall
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine,
|
I wish I could jump on a plane.
|
And so many nights I just dream of the ocean.
|
God, I wish I was sailin' again.
|
Oh, yesterdays are over my shoulder,
|
So I can't look back for too long.
|
There's just too much to see waiting in front of me,
|
and I know that I just can't go wrong
|
with these...
|
|
[Chorus]
