Lyrics

[ back ]

Atlantis

It's been so long since I've seen the ocean
You know I can't remember when
I burned my eyes on a light from Atlantis
And put them back together again
It's a destination unknown highway
The laws out there don't govern me
Sit outside and watch the starline
Numbering infinity

Chorus
Paint your picture of a lonesome lullaby
West Texas in springtime
Waycross, Georgia I got you on my mind
Still I can't decide whether to run or hide

Got to get back in the saddle
Or find a place where I can fly
But they sing so sweet way down in Vicksburg
You know they make you want to cry; my my

Chorus

Gotta get myself right out of here
Wanna be gone gotta be home for the first of the year
Find a place and settle down
Just want to get my feet on the ground

It's been so long since I've seen the ocean
You know I can't remember when
I burned my eyes on a light from Atlantis
And put them back together again
And put them back together again
