Ambling Toward the Unknown 2

Lyrics > Ambling Toward the Unknown 2

ST. LUCIA MORNING

I
I’VE BEEN KNOWN TO ROAM THE WORLD
FROM CATALINA TO THE IVORY COAST
NEVER ONE TO CHART A COURSE,
I’M JUST SAILING ‘TIL THE NEXT DAYS’ DAWN
TREASURES COME AND THEN THEY GO,
THE JEWELS AND DIAMONDS PASS ME BY
I SEE BLUE WATERS AND GLIMPSE THE SKY,
DO YOU NEED TO ASK ME WHY?

II
A MONK WALKS SLOWLY ‘ROUND THE WALL,
A BUDDHIST WALKS ON HIGH
DO THEY FIND SWEET PEACE ON THE STREETS
OR ARE THEY LEARNING HOW TO FLY?
THEY SEEK THE TRUTH TO FIND A PATH
WHICH, IN THE END, THEY VOW, WILL COME
KEEP THE FAITH AND FIND YOURSELF
YOU’LL DISCERN THE ONLY ONE

CHORUS
THESE THOUGHTS KEEP COMING FROM THIN AIR,
WHO KNOWS THE SOURCE OR HOW?
THEY FLOW AS RIVERS OVER BANKS
AFTER APRIL SHOWERS FLOAT IN AND OUT
OUR CONSCIOUSNESS SUBSIDES

III
MEET ME ON THE OCEAN ROAD
DOWN THE COAST FROM (THE) PEBBLE BEACH
THE SUN IS LOW, THE AIR IS COOL,
OH, THE MIST FLIES OFF RUMBLING WAVES
OH, IF LIFE COULD BE AS EASY AS
A WALK ALONG THE WIND SWEPT SHORE,
DREAMS ON EARTH BE REALIZED
AND THEY MIGHT ACTUALLY COME TRUE.

REPEAT CHORUS

REPEAT FIRST VERSE
