lyrics

I wanna be where the birds are
But the sun is shining on the rocks now
If I could ever be just like a bird, life’d be simple
I’d feel at ease among their flocks, yeah
I hear the way they speak so freely
As if there isn’t thought to how they sound
They just express themselves according to
Whatever it is that they’re around

They act as if they own it all yeah
The sea the sky and ground
Their ease eludes me just as much as their flight
I’ve tried to relax with all of my might
One breath at time, first today then tonigh
But I’m no bird.
It’s just me on the ground now
And I’m walkin’ on the rocks
I’m walkin’ on the rocks I’m walkin’ on the rocks

Of course, these rocks aren’t what I’d hoped them to be
From afar they seemed to be a place to rest in peace
Come and rest in peace they said to me

But on arrival there’s disturbance
There’s more to this than meets the eye
’Til you get to where you thought was well you just can’t tell
That the land of the glistening sun is a lie

You never can get there
It’s just a pot of gold sparkle flashing on the water
You can try to get close and it just stays far away
So I sit and wait to grow old
I’m sitting waiting to grow old
And I’m growing old
Growing old
