Seattle Blues / Island Hues

3/23/2015

 
Amy Hindman  ~ July 1996

Now I don’t know about this work thing, I just wanna sing

I mean, this is what I love to do, sing whether I’m happy or blue

 Gotta get back on track    I want my life back

Hyperactive energy of the city weighin’ down on me

Meter maid keeps on ticketin’ me,

wanna park my car wherever I be

Meter maid quit hasselin’ me 

CHORUS:  Just take me back to the country

In the country I’m breathin’ free, slowin’ down bein’ me 

And yes I know it appears to be that this is a song about the city

But it’s really about all the parts of me: city and country inside of me

Within me lies peace and serenity, the country

Conflict is only in the mind that’s not free: it’s not the city 

And I’ve received the blessings too,

knowin’ the joy of bein’ with you

Rockin’ on the water as the sky turns blue,

discoverin’ what we love to do

Finding our way, creating each day,

vocation must be for me – a passion play

    Now some they work for their monthly pay,

just enough to get by from day to day

Soul suffocating in an endless way,

as the clock ticks by dreams decay 

I wanna live in a meaningful way,

revealin’ my soul through work and play

Feelin’ the wonder of each new day,

touching each other in a loving way

For we are so much more than the small lives we bargain for

When you wish upon a star, you’ll discover who you really are 

When you wish upon a star
