Where I am is not where you are nor anywhere you can be
Where I am to you is far but as close as I can see
I sit here in my homeland far from home
I sit here still, quite and alone
Here I have peace as still as a pond
Here there is shelter and of this comfort I'm fond
My memories in the distance sit here by my side
Dreams of the future are my guide
I take my home with me, everywhere I go
And whatever life gives me, I use what I know
I sail from one place to another
Shifting effortlessly as a cloud
I tie places together
Like faces to a crowd
Here I am dancing, and I laugh and play
Here I play alone, content to spend all day
Here time is timeless and what's fast is slow
Here time is boundless and shifts to-and-fro
Some things don't matter, times, places, even people come and go
But some things change forever, everything we know
Some say a memory is nothing, but a nothing I can touch
But nothing amounts to nothing, and could never feel so much
A million pieces locked away
A million pieces here to stay
A thousand hello's, a thousand goodbye's
A thousand cheers, a thousand cries
Turn around to an open door
And what was past is no more
