lyrics

(Okay play me some guitarra)
(V1) Gonna give what it take, and take what I give back,
A young boy’s lessons, a van, and an eight-track,
His towns gone to hell, a cess pool of strip malls,
And all the pretty ladies poppin’ pills in the dance halls,
(I) He’s leavin’ (yeah he‘s leavin‘) it all (it all) behind, (Ghost vox.)
He’s goin’ (yea he’s goin’) where tangerine dreams reside. (Ghost vox.)
(V2) So let me ask, (What’s that?) who are you? (I’m me!) A child freedom child too? (Hell yeah!)
And do you spend your days, groovin the afternoons away?
(I) But he’s leavin’ (yeah he‘s leavin‘) it all (it all) behind (Melodies)
Yeah he’s goin’ (yea he goin’) where tangerine dreams reside (Melodies)
(C1) What ever happened to… the spirits were free,
And everybody just danced ‘cause it ain’t no thing,
You got to love the world around you, and stick it to the man,
Just by groovin’ to the free-love tune of the band,
(C2) You didn’t shower for days, but your friends didn’t mind,
‘cause it was strawberry fields, sage, rosemary, and thyme,
Before the day was done the maids would braid up your hair,
And you would strum the songs of summer into the air,
(V3) Oh I remember tangerine, white and yellow jasmine trees.
Mystic crystals shine and the dreamers dream
You can’t keep me in line… when I float through the sky…
‘Cause hearts that wish can truly fly.
And leave it, (and leave it) behind, (Ghost vox./ melodies)
And leave it, (and leave it) leave all of it, (leave all) behind, (Ghost vox./ melodies)
(C1)
(C2) And the message rang out, “discover who you am,”
Revolutionaries carried voice across the land
Hearts rang out, “Freedom!” as the youth took a stand,
And the true hearts looked towards the Everland…
(B) To the Everland! That’s right! Lift your voices high! Woo!
(V4) And you know that I’ll be… out in that Peaceful World…
I’ll be takin’ that train to freedom… to the Island of Real…
