Lyrics
Look at them laughing they thought it was funny
Observers found amusement in his actions, considering them foolish.
Another of his foolish games
Another instance of his actions perceived as foolish.
He packed up his things took just what he could carry
He gathered belongings he could carry and left abruptly.
Said goodbye I'm going away
He bid farewell, stating his departure.
And there in the moment they thought it was strange
Others found his departure odd at that moment.
Quite unusual to understand
It was challenging for them to comprehend his actions.
But things aren't always what they seem to be
Appearances can be deceptive; things aren't always as they seem.
And the picture he painted was not what he planned
His intended outcome didn't match the reality.
And he's gone as long as it will take him
He'll be away until he finds a place to calm his restless mind.
To find a place to rest his crazy mind
Seeking a respite for his troubled thoughts.
And he knows his will will not forsake him
His determination won't falter until he achieves his dream.
Til he finds the thing he's dreamin'
Pursuing the elusive dream despite the awareness of its distance.
Even though he knows that it's a
Long long way
His journey is acknowledged to be an extensive and challenging one.
He listens to rivers and talks to the moment
He finds solace in nature and moments of solitude.
When nobody else is around
He resides in the spaces where magical elements thrive.
He lives in the creases between rhymes and reasons
Living within the undefined areas between logic and emotions.
Where magic and secrets are found
Where mysteries and hidden truths reveal themselves.
He looked at the desert and he saw the flowers
He perceives beauty in unlikely places, transforming the ordinary.
Of meadows and mountains of blue
Finding extraordinary in seemingly barren landscapes.
He's danced with the silence and held onto whispers
Embracing silence and valuing subtle expressions.
And treasures each moment he's traveling through
Treasuring each passing moment of his journey.
And he's gone as long as it will take him
Continuing his journey until he discovers a tranquil space.
To find a place to rest his crazy mind
Seeking mental peace remains his priority.
And he knows his will will not forsake him
Determined to persist until his dream is realized.
Til he finds the thing he's dreamin'
Pursuing his dream despite its distance and challenges.
Even though he knows that it's a
Long long way
-And when he finds the gold
Anticipation of finding something valuable.
They'll come to him and circle him
Expectation of attention upon his discovery.
Like birds up in the sky
Envisioning disturbance upon attaining peace and happiness.
Tearing at the peace and joy he's found
And he's gone as long as it will take him
-To find a place to rest his crazy mind
-And he knows his will will not forsake him
-Til he finds the thing he's dreamin'
-Walking on what he believes in
Progressing based on his beliefs, despite inner turmoil.
Deep inside his heart is screamin'
Internal conflict persists despite his determination.
Even though he knows that it's a
Long long way
Reiteration of the extensive and challenging nature of the journey.
Long long way
Long long way
