Lyrics


I don't need no fancy hotel
Or a ticket for Economy Class
No pass port to no exotic locales
No Pre Flight Boarding Pass

You don't havetoleave the places you know
When you become disenchanted
Be a tourist in a place you call home
Then you'll stop taking it for granted


All I need is a different perspective
On the same old daily grind
Once you find the new
	in the familiar view
Your vacation is your state of mind




It's a few old friends sayin 
	"remember that time when.."
It's five o'clock on a friday night

It's remembering to look up
	at the clear blue sky
It's Shooting Stars and streaking city lights

It's the space between 
	a child's two front teeth
It's the warm towel out of the dryer

It's the cool breeze on a hot
	summer's day
And the warm girl asleep in your arms




Happiness 
It comes down a moment
and it's not meant to last
All we can do is to see when it's coming
And smile as it goes past
