lyrics

Before I open the door I feel I’ve been here before
And as the rain disappears, so do the years
Can I buy you a beer
Do you live around here
You seem like one of the few
Who sees the world as I do
It’s nice to meet you

Can you show me around
And share the wisdom you’ve found
Is there happiness here
It would be nice if it’s near
You have a face to admire
A look of distant desire
You don’t do as they do
You have your own point of view
It must be nice to be you

I try and imagine what will be
So much emptiness to see
Can all this freedom really be for me
We’ll see

Your life seems unhurried
You don’t appear to be worried
Should my standards be lower
For my life to be slower
I know I’ve not been here long but I feel I belong
And if it’s OK with you I’d like to do as you do
What’s it like to be you

I try and imagine what will be
So much emptiness to see
Can all this freedom really be for me
I try and imagine how I’ll be
In a new community
Can all this freedom really be for me
We’ll see
