di di di di di la la la la la la
in a spaceship over the mountains
chasing rainbows in the setting sun
leaving heart and home for the city of angels
i feel my life is undone
there are pathways winding below me
in pleasure i’ve gone where they go
in the quiet stillness i can hear symphonies
the loveliest music i know
how can i leave you again
i must be clear out of my mind
lost in a storm i’ve gone blind
oh how can i leave you again
oh it’s been a long time since i’ve listened
still longer since i’ve walked with you
for the first time i know what i’m missing
some answers are no longer true
so i question the course that i follow
i’m doubtful and deep in despair
my heart is filled with impossible notions
can it be you no longer care
still i ride on the wings of a high wind
blowing steady and strong behind me
as the clouds surrender my fate is for certain
i’m a sailor who runs to the sea
how can i leave you again
i must be clear out of my mind
lost in a storm i’ve gone blind
oh how can i leave you again
