All I Want

Breaking the mould

From this monotonous hold

Greyness provokes

These thoughts to unfold

 

There’s more for our eyes

Than our hometown to see

We’ll learn that these possessions

Are only skin deep

 

It’s all I want

It’s all I need

 

Bright lights

Clear skies

Out of metropolis

Into the tide

To hit the road

With no thought to reside

The hardest part

Is saying goodbye

 

We’ll awake

To the sun on our face

Forge a family

Out of strangers

 

We’ll miss those who aren’t near

Abundantly

Long for the comfort

Of their company once more

 

It’s all I want

It’s all I need

 

Bright lights

Clear skies

Out of metropolis

Into the tide

To hit the road

With no thought to reside

The hardest part

Is saying goodbye
