Pat Metheny - Wide and Far

Green pins where you want to go White pins where you've been, there isn't even ten Your already feeling old Pretty faces stare back from a magazine stack That you read when you're feeling bored Look through a telescope lens it doesn't make sense You think you've been there before Some far off feeling, some up close kind of ache A wide screen reason to look the other way There's a place by the lake that you go when it's late In the summer when the crowds are gone You sit all alone with your thoughts getting stoned Just waiting for some peace to come Like the thing that you tried that you thought that you liked For a minute then it all felt wrong So you change it again all your clothes, all your friends It's the same as it ever was That far off feeling, that up close kind of ache Some wide screen reason to look the other way It's the road that you paved over Indian graves And you wonder why your dreams are crazed So you cling to wife, your kids and your life There's nothing that your gonna save Put the razor to your face, hot water for a shave Kill the shadow of yesterday Clean shirt, clean pants, clean slate, second chance You're going by another name Some far off feeling, an up close kind of ache That instant karma always comes too late
