Limo

The phone never rang, but I took the call

Went and got a highway down from the wall

Climbed in my old Limo...full of empty spaces

Sat in the dark...tried on a thousand different faces

My chauffeur appeared, he's sometimes hard to see

Don't follow my orders but he looks a lot like me

Turned around slow, looked me in the eye

Said I'll take you somewhere where the rubber meets the sky

Driver, drive me away 

Pour me a drink from the Milky Way

Somewhere, somehow there's that place called Love 

Label my direction...in search of 

He fingered the wheel like he was holding a guitar

Said wherever you go son is not always where you are

Thought I heard laughter underneath the hood

He said it all runs on music 

when the world’s looking good

So throw away the seat belts... roll those windows down

Tonight we're going zen, strip the circus from the clown

He drove high above the city lights

Then he took a perfect smile, tossed it out into the night

Driver, drive me away…

We ride the invisible highways, out past the Amnesia webs and the lost cities. Out where stars Are born squandered and the Big Bands play big, and the nightlife goes on forever. And all around the Secrets whisper. 

Drive on… drive on…

We traveled in silence into deep space

Where spiritual detectives go looking for grace

And UFO boys and guys out on mission

Playing all night poker in a cosmic kitchen

Driver began to fade like a watercolor in the rain

The planets began to sing like prisoners free from chains

I took off my final mask, dropped it with a sigh

You see …  we’ve done a lot of crawling 

but we were born to fly

Driver, drive me away…
