Back to You

A Song about Cars, Boats and Planes

Back to You

Chorus
Driving
Sailing
Flying
Back to you

Verse 1
Looking at la carte, I made a start, in pursuit of you
Under acceleration, feel the elation, shrinking in the rear view
On das Autobahn going fast as I can, approaching the redline
Human and machine, in combustible dream, making up lost time
The mind is in motion over land sky and ocean, wheels cover the ground
With every change of gear, the rendezvous draws near, until destination found

Verse 2
Looking at the chart, I will depart, catching the morning tide
Setting sail, with wind on the tail, heading for the horizon wide
Through weather fair, or stormy nightmare, from equator and pole to pole
With each crashing wave, it is you I crave, the star guiding my soul
The mind is in motion over land sky and ocean, keel cutting through surf
Seven seas and beyond, tour du monde, navigate to the ends of the earth

Verse 3
Taking the sky, the freedom to fly, catching currents to ride
Lift under the wings, instruments sing, onwards the glide
In need of speed, the throttle I feed, afterburners glow
All is plane, as I cover terrain, like an arrow from a bow
The mind is in motion over land sky and ocean, breaking the speed of sound
Turbines are turning; this heart is yearning, for I’m homeward bound
