A Thousand Places

It's early, I'm awake
In the darkness I stare
Well, I can't remember
The name of this new place
It's funny when it happens
And you do not have a clue
It makes you realize
You are alive

One million lights
Are shining bright
So many faces
I do not know
A thousand places
I want to see
This is a secret
To break free

Walking down the streets
I can breathe the thick air
Then suddenly
The desert is here
And when I'm getting used
To the city I'm in
I will not stay
The world awaits

Here it comes the day
That I'm leaving again
I am always amazed
By new colours and scenes
Every land's so different
From the previous that I've seen
Different words
And different ideas

One million lights
Are shining bright
So many faces
I do not know
A thousand places
I want to see
This is a secret
To break free

Walking down the streets
I can breathe the thick air
Then suddenly
The desert is here
And when I'm getting used
To the city I'm in
I will not stay
The world awaits
