Still glaring
from the city lights
Into paradise I soared
Unable to come down
For reasons I’d ignored.
Total confusion,
Disillusion
New things I’m knowin’.
I’m standing on the shoreline
It’s so fine out there
Leaving with the wind blowing
But love takes care.
Know me, know me
Show me, show me
New things I’m knowin’.
Wind blowing through my sails
It feels like I’m gone
Leaving with the wind blowing
Through my sails. — Neil Young
“I have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesteryears are buried deep, leave it any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can. Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead. Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance.”
