Ponce de Leon Songtext
von Splitsville

Just like Ponce de Leon
I′ve traveled far and wide
When all is said and done
Have I enjoyed the ride?
You're putting me on
Is this the best it gets?
I haven′t jumped the ship
This trip's not over yet

Everywhere I go
I see the world around me
Growing smaller and faster
Will this be my disaster?

Everyone I know
Is counting up the losses
While I'm still climbing mountains
Tossing coins into fountains


Just like Ponce de Leon
I′m running out of time
I′ve conquered all my fears
I've suffered for my crimes

You′re leading me on
It's either sink or swim
And when I think I′m done
I'm ready to begin

Everyone I know
Is giving up on daydreams
Lock away their possessions
Got enslaved to professions

Everywhere I go
I′m thirsting for a chance
To show the world that I'm clever
So I might live forever

Just like Ponce de Leon

Everywhere I go
I see the world around me
Growing smaller and faster
Will this be my disaster?


Everyone I know
Is counting up the losses
While I'm still climbing mountains
Tossing coins into fountains

Just like Ponce de Leon
End up at a rest home in South Florida
