Ken Flagg - Zanzibar lyrics
when i was a child i used to dream about a faraway land with palm tress and oceans of blue and sometimes i'd get upset when things werent't going well with you and i'd stare out of the window, down at all the people going about their business on the street and pick out a nice little pale-faced girl with dark hair and a mysterious past that i'd like to meet and say there you are, zanzibar but i wouldn't actually say anthing i'd just sit there feeling nostalgic and sad and longing for the things i couldn't put my finger on but was sure were much better than anything i'd ever had you words were like waves in the distance lapping against the shores of my discontent you said something about living in the present but i had no idea what you meant i just kept looking at that girl and saying there you are, zanzibar this morning i realized you were the only thing i'd ever really need of course you were already gone i thought of your words, wished i'd paid them heed the girl from the street was in my bed all the mystery had washed right out of her face and i stared at your picture on my nightstand and your eyes were as blue and your smile as bright as the sea and the sky in that place so far away there you are, zanzibar |
