Lyrics for There From Here
I'm flying out now I'm getting away Somewhere where I won't complain Lift above the traffic The engines of time The spike of the arm of the clock The airport's a sea With people just like me Trying to get there from here Killing the time With our magazine minds Flipping the pages too fast Who wore it best The architecture's digest I eat, but I'm always hungry Watch me walk quickly Through hallways marked bright Past perfume, too sweet Pass the lines Of liquor stacked neat Where it's all duty-free But we pay with this purgatory I wanna go somewhere Sunny and clear But I'm sad As the last unsold souvenir And they say you can never Get there from here Sit beside me Here, in economy And wake me before I go to sleep
