Now that I am far from New York City Kind of nowhere, kind of somewhere pretty I don't recognize the trees, do they recognize me All I know is for the meantime I'm not so busy I like to be a stranger in a strange land At least I like it when it's something I planned But is it bitter or bittersweet, what was that look of defeat Did you really check on out, I don't understand Out here in so many empty spaces Just being, without giving, without taking I don't mind missing out, there's so much I can do without But I still don't ever plan to be replacing My whole life, I've dedicated To being true to love unfaded For myself, my family and friends For you and us three til the end The world unbound from all the pain Everything blooms after the rain So now that I am far from New York City Kind of nowhere, kind of somewhere pretty Not gonna make it to the mountains, not gonna make it to the sea I'll just stay here in the flatlands because it's good enough for me And those geese who flew past low, I wonder what they know Maybe I'll ask them what they've seen, maybe I should follow Maybe I'll get myself back home, maybe you'll tell me what you mean By closing up your eyes while I'm free-falling in between The mourning doves are singing for the ages That melancholy softens all my rages I say I love you on the phone, you say you love me on the phone So please, don't ever plan to be replacing My whole life, I've dedicated To being true to love unfaded For myself, my family and friends For you and us three til the end The world unbound from all the pain Everything blooms after the rain
