Away We Go Songtext
von John Smith

Just within vision
The road opens wide
To swallow me whole
At home with the atlas
She′s desperate to fly
And so she asks me every day
"When are we going away?"

The drums of the madmen
Louder each year
Have put me to flight
Places change shape
And friends disappear


She calls out to me
When I am astray
She says, "Baby, take me away"

Hey, gather your coats and your shoes
There's nothing to lose
Let us see better days
In some sweet place far away
At the very least
We′ll say we gave it a go

Spring came on quickly
We never returned
We never looked back
The candle not lit
Has longer to burn

And still she asks me every day
She says, "Baby, take me away"


Hey, gather your coats and your shoes
There's nothing to lose
