Starfish
Journey of a Starfish: Finding Home and Harmony
Lyrics
I saw a starfish on the ground
I observed a starfish on the ground.
He was half buried in the sand
It was partially buried in the sand.
Just so out of place and ah
Seemingly out of place and,
He was a long, long way from home
The starfish was far away from its natural habitat.
I was a long, long way from home
I, too, was far away from my home.
And so we talked a little while
We engaged in conversation for a short time.
Then I shook his hands, and I
Afterwards, I shook hands with the starfish, and
I was a long, long way from home
I remained significantly distant from home.
And everything is wonderful
Expressing the sentiment that everything is wonderful,
When everything's alright so alright
Especially when everything is going well.
There we were
We found ourselves in a situation,
One less star tonight
Resulting in one less star in the sky tonight.
Na na na na na na na
Melodic vocalizations or nonspecific expressions.
Na na na na na na
-Na na na na na na na
-Na na na na na na
-We thought a better place to go
We considered a potentially better location,
Might be the top of purple mountains
Such as the summits of purple mountains.
So close to outer space, and ah
Closeness to outer space and,
We were a long, long way from home
Yet, we remained significantly distanced from home.
We'd bring some records and a game
We planned to bring along some records and a game.
Might take a walk or read a book
Possibly take a walk or read a book,
But it's not the same, no ah
However, it wouldn't be the same, no ah.
We're still a long long way from home
We were still a long, long way from home.
I saw a starfish on the ground
Reiteration of the earlier observation of a starfish on the ground.
He was half buried in the sand
Once again, partially buried in the sand.
Just so out of place and ah
Still seemingly out of place and,
He was a long, long way from home
Continuing to be a long, long way from home.
I saw a starfish on the ground
Repetition of the earlier sighting of a starfish on the ground.
Oh, he was still buried in the sand
Emphasizing that the starfish remained buried in the sand.
Now he's not so all alone
Now, however, it's not so all alone.
And he's finally going home
The starfish is finally heading home.
So I smiled and I shook his hands, and we were singin'
Expressing a positive encounter as we sang together.
Na na na na na na na
Repetition of melodic vocalizations or nonspecific expressions.
Na na na na na na
-Na na na na na na na
-Na na na na na na
-There we were one less star tonight
Reiteration of being one less star in the sky tonight.
There we were one more star tonight
Now, however, there is one more star in the sky tonight.
