Suitcase sitting by the wall
Never really packed at all
Maps and tickets big and small
Waiting for a random call
Streetlights blinking one by one
Another day is almost done
Everybody's on the run
I'm just staring at the sun
Maybe north maybe south
Maybe nowhere anyone found
Got a dream inside my mouth
Trying hard to get back out
Take me somewhere somewhere new
Past the gray and past the blue
Past the things I always knew
Somewhere with a different view
Take me somewhere not too far
Maybe near or maybe far
I don't care just where we are
As long as I can see the stars
Old café and traffic signs
Same old roads a thousand times
Every clock is drawing lines
Across these sleepy little minds
Maybe there's another place
Slower days and easier ways
Different names and different trains
Different skies and different rains
Maybe east maybe west
Maybe where my heart can rest
I don't need the very best
Only something that feels fresh
Take me somewhere somewhere new
Past the gray and past the blue
Past the things I always knew
Somewhere with a different view
Take me somewhere not too far
Maybe near or maybe far
I don't care just where we are
As long as I can see the stars
Somewhere quiet somewhere slow
Somewhere only dreamers go
Pack it up and hit the road
Maybe that's the way back home
