Fly Away

Beneath the sun is where I fly
so high above the rain
Never reaching nirvana
but never reaching pain

I sail above a cloud
on a carpet of wind
Never knowing where
Never knowing when

When I fly away
I fly away
So far away

When I fly away
I fly away
So far away

I wait so long
to taste my name on your lips
and feel the comfort
of your fingertips

To play games together
Like hunting for Schrodinger's cat
The way you stimulate my vision
I can see like a bat

(but) When I fly away
I fly away
So far away

When I fly away
I fly away
So far away

I miss you lady
Miles and miles away
As we sit alone together
at the end or our day

Missing the cool solace
of your warm skin
More expressive than these words
put down by pen

In it's place
piled high by fate
Are these construct tasks
that fill my plate

To implement and
to build
A structure that
Will shield

The collected data
pruned on a vine
Escaping the snares
and the blight of time

In it's place
I would much rather possess
A cliffside walk
under the Greek sun's caress

(but) When I fly away
I fly away
So far away

When I fly away
I fly away
So far away

I'll be home
this Thursday night
so don't forget
To leave on a light

To make it easier
For me to find
The princess that
I left behind.

When I fly away
I fly away
So far away .
