Testo di Columbus

Better keep your distance from this whale Better keep your boat from going astray Find yourself a partner and treat them well Try to give them shelter night and day 'Cause here in the blue light Far away from the fireside Things can get twisted and crazy and crowded You can't even feel right So I dream of columbus Every time the panic starts I dream of columbus With your maps and your beautiful charts I dream of columbus There's an ache in a traveling heart See how the cormorant swoops and dives Must be a thrill to go that deep Down to the basement of this life Down to where the mermaid gently sleeps Not like here in the blue light Far away from the fireside Where things get twisted and Haunted and crowded You can't even feel right So I dream of columbus Every time the panic starts I dream of columbus With your maps and your beautiful charts I dream of columbus There's an ache in a traveling heart As the tide must ebb and flow I am dragged down under I wait the livelong day For an end to my hunger So I dream of columbus Every time the panic starts I dream of columbus With your maps and your beautiful charts I dream of columbus There's an ache in a traveling heart
