A Permanent Road - KITARO

Wait, it's so permanent Always rearranging, I can't commit Fear of a future I can't predict Has got me laying sleepless at night The future freaks me out This is a cycle often repeated That's predictable to a fault It's overwhelming this process of changing It's always over before it starts It's out of my control, I got nothin' to show now for it See how long I can go before somebody knows I'm running Wait, it's so permanent Always rearranging, I can't commit Fear of a future I can't predict Has got me laying sleepless at night The future freaks me out Go 'round like a record, constantly skippin' Hung up on thе cracks that haven't formed at all Waiting for somethin' that's nеver coming Another excuse so I can put it off It's out of my control, I got nothin' to show now for it See how long I can go before somebody knows I'm running Wait, it's so permanent Always rearranging, I can't commit Fear of a future I can't predict Has got me laying sleepless at night The future freaks me out It's so permanent Always rearranging, I can't commit Fear of a future I can't predict Has got me layin' sleepless at night The future freaks me out This is who I am when no one is watchin' Flaws in character, frozen by my options I won't touch a thing because failure's contagious Safe from your judgement by staying complacent Oh Wait, it's so permanent Always rearranging, I can't commit Fear of a future I can't predict Has got me laying sleepless at night The future freaks me out It's so permanent Always rearranging, I can't commit Fear of a future I can't predict Has got me laying sleepless at night The future freaks me out The future freaks me out The future freaks me out The future freaks me out

I got a letter from a friend the other morning He say it's hot down by Montego Bay I got the point and now I think it's finally dawning Yeah, yeah, I got to get away I got to take myself a Permanent Vacation The sky's the limit, but my plane won't fly My nose is clean and lordie don't need no sedation Yeah, yeah, and that's the reason why (Chorus) I really need it, really, really need St Tropez I want a tan where the sun it never shines I really need it, really, really need St Tropez You best believe it that I got to get away I got a sister, man she really got a pin head She think she kinky but she can't get straight She say she livin', but I kinda think she's brain dead Just excess baggage on a late night freight (Chorus) I gotta take me on a Permanent Vacation The girl's be cummin' down in Cayman Brack I gotta hand it to a firm situation Yeah, yeah, got to cut me some slack I really need it, really, really need St Tropez I want a tan where the sun it never shines I really need it, really, really need St Tropez I really need it, really need it, really really...

A bit of time, I need it now If I'm too forward, just slow me down But can you see I can't sleep? I wonder what it'd be like with you next to me I think you're what's costing me The permanent price, the look in your eyes I know what you mean without saying a thing So please tell me now, but don't let me down The words that you say are the price that I pay Feels like I've been runnin' out of the means I need to survive I know I'm not ready to die I won't let it happen Lock the door, but what for? No one to walk in on me anymore Think my place needs a new facе Feel free to occupy my space sometime Somеtime It feels like my skin's been keeping me in But you help me take it all on the chin Accept me for me, allow me to be A form of myself I've always wanted to see I need a release, you're talking at me I know what you want, I've got what you need I'm feelin' a way, a permanent way Well, what are your plans? I think you should stay 'Cause I hope that we Can feel the way we do now for all time I feel so content I could die I might let it happen

Memories serve, only to show What came before, wouldn't have grown Maybe the past, has brought me to this Maybe this time, love will be missed I hear my heart calling for you And I believe you feel it too I want something permanent, like the stars in the sky Permanent, like the mountain high Permanent, as time goes by, I want something I can count on Permanent, like the sun and the rain Permanent, like a burning flame Permanent, I'll say it again I want something that won't change Respecting yourself, reaching down deep That's how I'll find, a love so complete It became clear, the very, very first time It's more than a dream, that you could be mine I hear my heart calling for you and I believe you feel it, too I want something permanent, like the stars in the sky Permanent, like the mountain high Permanent, as time goes by, I want something I can count on Permanent, like the sun and the rain Permanent, like a burning flame Permanent, I'll say it again, say it again, say it again I want something that will never change What's my only way, I could never say that I don't feel the same You've brought me somewhere I can feel safe Don't you feel it, don't you feel it I want something, say it again, say it again Like the stars in the sky Like the mountain high, as time goes by I want something that will never change I can count on, like the stars in the sky Permanent I'll say it again, I want something that will never change I want something permanent, yes I do Permanent, yes I do, gonna say it again, say it again Permanent, like a burning flame, like the sun and rain I want something that won't change

You should hear it The quiet sound of knowing there is nothing left to say All the feeling That takes me back to somewhere I don't wanna be again 'Cause you know everything that's on my mind But knowing everything don't make it right But you can close your eyes 'Til the darkness underneath us starts to fade But I will take my time 'Til the damage seeps in just enough to change
