|
Holiday quiet on these streets, except for some stubborn leaves |
|
That didn't fall with the fall and now they clatter in vain |
|
Holiday sky, midnight clear, wind is high, hard to steer |
|
Old muffler rumbles like an old fighter plane |
|
In search of some rest, in search of a break |
|
From a life of tests where something's always at stake |
|
Where something's always so far |
|
What about my broken car? |
|
What about my life so far? |
|
What about my dream? |
|
What about? |
|
What about everything? |
|
What about aeroplanes? |
|
And what about ships that drank the sea? |
|
What about? |
|
What about the moon and stars? |
|
What about soldier battle scars |
|
And all the anger that they eat? |
|
I am not in need |
|
Get away and come with me |
|
Come away with me and we'll see |
|
If I was right on that night, that a future was made |
|
Before time takes each year, like a knife cuts it clear |
|
It's school, then work and then life that just sharpens the blade |
|
I think about time for fun, I think about time for play |
|
Then I think about being done, with no resume |
|
With no one left to blame |
|
What about fortune and fame? |
|
What about your love to obtain? |
|
What about the ring? |
|
What about? |
|
What about everything? |
|
What about aeroplanes? |
|
And what about ships that drank the sea? |
|
What about? |
|
What about the moon and stars? |
|
What about soldier battle scars |
|
And all the anger that they eat? |
|
I am not in need |
|
Holiday quiet on these streets, except for some reason me |
|
The hometown harbor lights bright, the sailboats clatter in vain |
|
Holiday sky, midnight clear, wind is high on this pier |
|
I find it hard to complain when compared with what about |
|
What about everything? |
|
What about aeroplanes? |
|
And what about ships that drank the sea? |
|
What about? |
|
What about the moon and stars? |
|
What about soldier battle scars |
|
And all the anger that they eat? |
|
What about? |
|
What about aliens? |
|
What about you and me and |
|
What about gold beneath the sea? |
|
What about? |
|
What about when buildings fall? |
|
What about that midnight phone call? |
|
The one that wakes you from your peace |
|
Well, I am not, I am not, I am not in need |
