lyrics

If you ever want to find a brand new home
I'll take you away. I won't ask why.
We could find a field of our very own;
Playground and garden, and our bed at night.

We could take a train across the city,
And watch the puppet show as it goes by;
Men and women running to get home
Or bartering or fighting, talking out of rhyme,

The earnest mechanic, the lounger, the beggar,
The boys and the dogs in the alleyway.
The architecture, like frozen music,
Sings a song of this city's better days.

We could just stay here out of the forest
And let the postman run all our errands for us,
But there's something shameful in the pure joy of the poet
Until he is alone without the eyes of man to spoil it.

If you ever want to find a brand new home
I'll take you away. I won't ask why.
If you ever wanna find a brand new home
Just say goodbye.
