#41 LONG WAY FROM NOWHERE
#41 LONG WAY FROM NOWHERE
(Pop)
I'm a long way from nowhere,
And a short time from done.
You should let me in the castle,
Out here, my chances are none.
I must find the tallest tower,
That reaches towards the sun.
I'm a long way from nowhere,
And a short time from done.
There's the part where you wander,
And the time where wings can't fly.
And the place where you look backwards,
And the paths you shouldn't try.
Don't forget the weight you came for,
No pause for love's embrace.
Beyond your thoughts and feelings,
Remains the task you can't replace.
I'm a long way from nowhere,
And a short time from done.
You should let me in the castle,
Out here, my chances are none.
I must find the tallest tower,
That reaches towards the sun.
I'm a long way from nowhere,
And a short time from done.
I know about the maiden,
Locked within the tallest keep.
Counts the stars and then she tastes them,
But chooses not to weep.
I've seen the lonely minstrel,
His piebald coat of arms.
He sings a song of blackbirds,
To prove his lilting charms
I'm a long way from nowhere,
And a short time from done.
You must let me in the castle,
Out here, my chances are none.
I'll climb the tallest tower,
Stretch out and touch the sun.
I'm a long way from nowhere,
And a short time from done.
I'm a long way from nowhere,
And a short time from done.
You must let me in the castle,
Out here, my chances are none.
I must climb the tallest tower,
Stretch out and touch the sun.
I'm a long way from nowhere,
And a short time from done.
Who knows what we'll become?
