My New World

The place she called home was high on a hill,
 way up in a big house under the trees
 Day's in the sun she's seen by the river,
 reading a book, feeding her dreams
 Now she's a loner, now she's a stoner, no one can touch her ...

 He was the boy, the pride of his mother,
 stainless and shining, all heaven sent
 But then the country calls for a soldier
 and he went out to a foreign land
 When he returned faces look different,
 at the end of innocence nothing's the same

 My new world was spinning me around
 And that was all that could be
 My new world was spinning me around
 And nothing's lost on memory
 My new world was spinning me around ...

 Hiked up to Woodstock, she got high in Frisco,
 summers of love, that child she was wild
 She had the need for total expression,
 painting and poetry filled up her mind
 Boy, he took pride in serving his country,
 went off to war no more than a child

 My new world was spinning me around
 And this is all that i've found
 My new world was spinning me around
 And time can be my enemy
 My new world was spinning me ...

 Now she's a loner, now she's a stoner, no one can touch her ...

 Out in the fields we met in the summer
 On a poetic island no past to recall
 Breaking like waves we flooded the moment
 Laughing at the perfectness of it all

 My new world waits patiently
 When living is lost in a memory
 My new world is ahead of me
 But sometimes I'm back where I used to be ...
 Then the fall ran away with our time

 Dissapointment struch so hard
 When he found out there was no
 "Lucky stars and stripes"
 They set it all on fire !!!
 While Jim and Janis got us higher
 "She's so freaky, she's so fine"
 Soldier, he can't get her off his mind
 Down the desert to the sea
 Leave the raving 60's all behind ...

 Out of the blue still reaching for something
 Feeling the window of time out of mind
 Catching a glimpse each one to the other
 Always not knowing the spark left behind
 Going and going with fictional borders
 Passing two feet from the door

 My new world keeps spinning me around
 And this is all that can be
 My new world is ahead of me now
 This is all that I've found
 My new world keeps spinning me around
 My new world keeps spinning me
 And time is not my enemy
 My new world is ahead of me today
 And all things pass away ...
