take me away

somewhere magical and warm

with sun and shadows and dapple

i'll even go on my own

take me away

my feet won't listen to me though and my pockets are empty

maybe a journey on a small quiet blue bus through the roads

with my earphones in as i look at the world through the slightly parted windows

sitting in the back, in a corner

take me away

somewhere i can sit outside in a crowded cafe in a sunny square or near the beach

with flowers and colours

adventure and wonder in the air

take me away

green trees and leaves and long dresses i can wear all day long

lounging by the pool at night

looking up to the stars

maybe an omelette in the morning at a busy breakfast

sleepy holiday mornings, buttered bread rolls in the morning and hot onion soup at night

take me away

by the wrist, with a nudge or send me right off,

i'll even go on my own, I just pray you let me go

i want to feel the air, wind, sun

in sandals and sunglasses

wandering

take me away before too much time passes

so it feels like music in my soul, fiction in my veins, magic in my life
