In bleak and empty places we can watch from a greater distance - the credulous delighting in every nation Don't lose your sense of humour, entertain the wildest thoughts We can walk for miles and miles without seeing anybody Some country rare and blessed away from this confusion No message for the masses only you and me The long winter is coming and instinct is telling me to fly towards the south I want to be in a place of beginnings, not endings! Forget all your belongings - leave the city, come unto the ends of the earth with me All our friends and relatives fell for neatly packaged policies And we shuddered at the headline, newsflash of the tensions in the Middle East You know as well as I do detente can't last forever Or overpopulation Me? I'd rather watch Peace of mind is my priority The long winter is coming and instinct is telling me to fly towards the south I want to be in a place of beginnings, not endings! Forget all your belongings - leave the city, come unto the ends of the earth with me
