Many times, I seem to need my peace of mind After girls and payphone fights, I'll be alone I've gotta hide from a man with serpent's eyes In this house of candlelight, that I adore Cause after dark, after I'm lost in long ago Stained glass will watch the shows of songs of praise Broken tiles run along the wooden floors Echoing my voice against the doors Hey, I could let it all fade away Cause in this place I've got a wandering mind All I've got is this wandering mind Summer days, the smell of grass under our feet Under eaves our hearts do beat in common time I'm climbing trees with fucked up knees in a southern breeze– A subtle hum, a soliloquy from far away Sailing boats, we glide through sunlit quiet creeks Though all the boats may leak, we'll patch the holes Time loses meaning here, we'll never know the date Future thoughts won't make us feel afraid Hey, I could let it all fade away Cause in this place I've got a wandering mind All I've got, all I've got is this Ooh, people they always change Ooh, brick and stone will forever remain Ooh, my places they stay the same Ooh Hey, I could let it all fade away Cause in this place I've got a wandering mind All I've got is this wandering mind Hey, I could let it all fade away Cause in this place I've got a wandering mind All I've got, all I've got is this wandering mind

In this morning rain, I'll twirl you round to a song or two Here we go again, my clumsy feet won't keep up with you As the record spins, our heads take off, our minds are in the clouds As the church bell rings, I never thought my chest could beat this loud And I'm not trying to cause a commotion, I just wanna find the truth I don't need no pills and no potion To show me where the skies are blue Cos they say- so they say, there's a place where we're all okay Far away- so far away, Himalaya awaits La-dum-dah dum dum duh, lah dum duh dum Tiny dancing soul, doing pirouettes like music boxes of old The rain can't take it's toll, Cos when you're warm inside who can feel the cold Muddy canvas shoes, fingers rosy red like the sunsets we drew Nothing left to prove, I'm happy here with the impromptu And I'm not trying to cause a commotion, I just wanna find the truth I don't need no pills and no potion To show me where the skies are blue Cos they say- so they say, there's a place where we're all okay Far away- so far away, Himalaya awaits La-dum-dah dum dum duh, lah dum duh dum Ooh lord, am I dreaming as I speak? Ooh lord, I guess the butterflies can go back to sleep Ooh lord, I think the past is going to stay the past And oh ooh lord, I think I've found Himalaya at last And I'm not trying to cause a commotion, I just wanna find the truth I don't need no pills and no potion To show me where the skies are blue Cos they say- so they say, there's a place where we're all okay Far away- so far away, Himalaya awaits La-dum-dah dum dum duh, lah dum duh dum
