Across every ocean for the sake of locomotion



But I wouldn't have a notion

how to save my soul.

I walk down the sidewalk

run down the broadwalk



Stop and make small talk but I can't say no to you.

I can't say no

I can't say yes



I can't even write down my own address.

I can't touch heaven

it's a little too far



It's the only way to travel

got dreaming on a parr.

I'm staring through the window

wonder where you are



Moving through the landscape at a million miles an hour.

Across every nation

from the harbour to the station



It's a source of inspiration

it's a power to the state.

They run down the railways

sail across the seaways



Fly through the airways

but they can't say no to you.

I can't stand up

I can't stand still



I know you wouldn't like it

if I told you how I feel.

Ijust want to say that it's only common sense



But the words always fail me at my own expense.

I'm staring out the window

wonder where you are



Moving through the landscape at a million miles an hour.

Across every ocean

for the sake of locomotion

. . .

Across every ocean

for the sake of locomotion
