Grand Old World
Chasing Wonder: Embracing Life's Transcendent Journey
Lyrics
Standing in the sun, gazing at a new day
Standing in the sun, appreciating a new day
Filling in the blanks, just another Monday
Filling in the blanks, experiencing a typical Monday
Waiting for a plane, take me down there under
Waiting for a plane to transport to an undisclosed location
Waiting for the past, waiting for the wonders
Anticipating the past and eagerly awaiting wonders
Take it to the skies, make it to the big cloud
Taking flight into the sky, aiming for significant achievements
Far below the sea, far away the runner
Deep beneath the sea, far from a pursuing runner
Think about the speed, dream about the distance
Contemplating speed and dreaming of great distances
Far out to the east, leave behind all western
Heading far to the east, leaving behind all things western
Cut me a slice of the sky
Requesting a portion of the sky
I want to drown in your downbeat wonders
Expressing a desire to be immersed in captivating wonders
Cut me a slice of grand old world
Asking for a share of the grand old world
While trains and planes goes passing by
Observing trains and planes passing by
Standing in the sun, feeling like a flower
Standing in the sun, feeling vibrant like a flower
Looking, from a jackass in the shadow of the towers
Viewing the world from an unwise perspective in the shadow of towers
Standing in the heat looking at the river
Enduring the heat, gazing at the river
Caught between this now and the rhythm of forever
Caught between the present moment and the eternal rhythm
Standing in the market gazing at the sundown
Standing in the market, observing the sunset
Curtains falling down, people pull me under
Witnessing curtains fall, feeling pulled down by people
Can you hear the wild dog, can you slow the time down
Listening for wild sounds, attempting to slow down time
Catching up with gods, lost in all their wonders
Trying to catch up with gods, lost in their wonders
Cut me a slice of the sky
Asking for another piece of the sky
I want to drown in your downbeat wonders
Expressing a wish to be immersed in captivating wonders again
Cut me a slice of grand old world
Requesting another share of the grand old world
While trains and planes goes passing by
Observing trains and planes passing by once more
