I drew me a picture
Of blinding light
Dove right in and nearly
Lost my sight
Oh, the darkness
Was not what I had in mind tonight, ohh, whoah

I went out wandering
With no place in mind
Never had a clue about
What I could find
Oh, if only I didn’t try so hard
Outside, ohh, whoa

Next to the water
Where the birds fly by
They come and they go and they never
Say goodbye
If only we could try the same sometime
I’d fly, ohh, whoa

Ohh, ohhhhhh (repeat)

Hands to move
Minutes to pass
I want to leave behind 
Something that will last
Oh, if only
I had just a little more time, tonight, ohh, whoa

Out there somewhere
Afloat at sea
The old man’s boat is no
Place to be
Oh, when the storm
Washes out his crooked teeth
We’ll see, ohh, whoa

Ohh, ohhhhhh (repeat)
