I wish that clouds could hold me up like I thought as a child, growing up I wish I could sound soothing as the rainfall but i am only a drop from the storm
Feel like a tourist out in the country Once this whole world was all countryside Feel like a tourist in the big city soon I will simply evaporate
the streams up north the drums down south they take across afghanistan a long time ago you're shuffling your feet into the next dimension soon skyscrapers will be everywhere
I feel like a tourist lost in the suburbs soon our whole world will be urban sprawl feel like a lover out on the ocean feel like a teardrop streaming off your chin
some will bet against you try even to prevent you but not many can stop you man if you got a perfect plan
can they possibly try demand to know why they would bow to you in this sad a thousand generations
feel like a tourist out in the desert somehow it feels like the devil's breath feel like a tourist out in this swampland this world is just of water and land
everywhere I go I'm a tourist but if you stay with me I'll always be at home
Now you all know The bards and their songs When hours have gone by I'll close my eyes In a world far away We may meet again But now hear my song About the dawn of the night Let's sing the bards' song
Tomorrow will take us away Far from home No one will ever know our names But the bards' songs will remain Tomorrow will take it away The fear of today It will be gone Due to our magic songs
There's only one song Left in my mind Tales of a brave man Who lived far from here Now the bard songs are over And it's time to leave No one should ask you for the name of the one Who tells the story
Tomorrow will take us away Far from home No one will ever know our names But the bards' songs will remain Tomorrow all will be known And you're not alone So don't be afraid In the dark and cold 'Cause the bards' songs will remain They all will remain
In my thoughts and in my dreams They're always in my mind These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men And elves Come close your eyes You can see them, too
