I feel the days getting shorter
There's no sleep for me tonight
Now the season has issued its orders
And the stars have mapped out my flight
Close my eyes and let the air take me
And I dream of the greenest of greens
Till a shifting wind finally wakes me
Trim my sails and paddle upstream
I'm taking the high way
And I'm chasing the flyway
Giving myself to the sky
I hear my brothers and sisters
Calling out in the night
They say I'm here and I'm here and I'm here
And we're all going to make it alright
Now the moon does a waltz on the water
And the sound of the waves fades away
Am I the message or am I the bottle?
Am I adrift or am I on my way?
I'm taking the high way
And I'm chasing the flyway
Giving myself to the sky
Now the storm sings out like a choir
And the rain leaps down on my back
But my body's an engine on fire
And I'll never be blown off the tracks
Push through to the morning
And the clouds fall apart
Then I see the rippling shoreline
And beyond is the greenest of greens
And I know that I'm here and I'm here and I'm here
And the world's wrapped up in my wings
I'm taking the high way
And I'm chasing the flyway
Giving myself to the sky
