Theres a place by the river in the back of my mind

Daddy you showed me but back then I was blind

Just give me directions I promise Ill go

Please let me see cos Im too young to know

Let me see cos Im too young to know



I found what I searched for a warm august night

In a dream in a desert I was high as a kite

When I finally learned how to manage my states

I pured out my heart on the buffalo tapes

Oh those beautiful buffalo tapes



So give me one by land

Give me two if the sea

Give me three if my cool friends are asking for me

Tell them I have gone fishing

And that no one knows where

cos daddy they hate me when I am not there

Oh they hate me when I am not there



Oh the tip of my pen has run totally dry

From hundreds of letters to you asking why

They sent invitatons then hated my stay

Theyre shooting my wings while Im flying away

Theyre shooting my wings away



Now Im happy that Ive broken free

Daddy is it all that I hope it will be

Please let me see cos Im too young to know

Let me see cos Im to young to know
