Take me somewhere nice
To some tired island
In your heart called
Paradise
Though we wander 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 rendezvous
Out of the blue
And take a deep breath
Just we two
And we'll be so far gone
The oars will roll on
And we will happily
Wave so long
If we hook a dream
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
Or climb the great divide
Or wake up beside myself
Just to know I'm alive
Every wait around
Pays me a visit and
Drags my eyelids down
They sting like growing pains
Iced in the veins
Of 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
If we hook a dream
And it tows us back down this open stream
We'll say hello
Oh oh
Take us wherever you go
