The excitement of starting off on a journey to a new land, eyes wide open to what lies ahead.
lyrics
1. LIFT OFF 3:39
shape size colour and sound/ write my name on the tag of my backpack /
16 kilos 200 grams / shape size colour and sound / it’s you and me now i whisper / as it vanishes through the flaps / shape size colour and sound / my new home now goes down the conveyor / passport stamped see you again on the other side.
and i lift up into this new adventure / take off my shoes relax to some music / and i’m free / free as a travelling soul can be / yes i’m free.
tones smells flavours and sights / let go of all i know / see the world through the eyes of a child / tones smells flavours and sights / tingling all my senses / market place in another world / tuk-tuks trucks buses and cars / rusty old mopeds buckling under the strain / tuk-tuks trucks buses and cars / a holy cow mid road / traffic zooming around it / see you again on the other side.
and i lift up into this new adventure / take off my shoes relax to some music / and i’m free / free as a travelling soul can be / yes i’m free.
in the sky i’m getting lost and found / you all look so tiny on the ground / feel a rush of freedom down my spine / and i follow my senses / and i’m free / free as a travelling soul can be / yes i’m free.
