Lyrics of

Any world (that I'm welcome to)

	
If I had my way I would move to another lifetime;
I'd quit my job, ride the train through the misty night-time.
I'll be ready when my feet touch the ground, wherever I come down,
And if the folks will have me, then they'll have me.

Any world that I'm welcome to 
Any world that I'm welcome to
Any world that I'm welcome to
Is better than the one I come from.

I can hear your words when you speak of what you are and have seen;
I can see your hand reaching out through a shining daydream.
Where the days and nights are not the same, captured happy in a picture frame;
Honey, I will be there, yes, I'll be there.

[chorus]

I got this thing inside me that's got to find a place to hide me.
I only know I must obey this feeling I can't explain away.

I think I'll go to the park, watch the children playing;
Perhaps I'll find in my head what my heart is saying.
A vision of a child returning. A kingdom where the sky is burning;
Honey, I will be there, yes, I'll be there.

[chorus]

Is better than the one I come from.
Is better than the one I come from.

Any world that I'm welcome to. [any world will do]
