Lyrics Strange Land - The Tear Garden

Strange Land

Tried the swirling mists of Avalon
The suburbs of Pompeii
I trod the Himalayan foothills
Stopped in Denver for a day
I sampled sweet Siberia
Flew whales 'round Tampa Bay
I pitched my tent next to the palace
In the Republic of No Way
And I’ve been one with the people
I trod water, rode the clouds
Not trying to impress you
But I cannot cope with crowds
Just be assured I’ve liked it here, I recommend the view
If I had to do it all again, I’d wear my better shoes
My friends are so accommodating, even you
Know this world is full of wonders
Under each and every stone
The Song of Sam, the Crack of Thunder
And the alarm bell on your phone
I have dipped my feet in waters
That would chill your fragile bones
But even though I’ve liked it here, I sense I’m out of place
So for my next trick I will show you how to make some space
I’ll slip inside this now, count up to 1338
I’m away… My way
