Wish I was going some place tropical Wish I was going to Portugal I wanna walk the streets of Oporto I wanna be someone that I don't know Floating blind in a highway bed Sleep-speeding towards oblivion Lay me down in a sea of dreams Take me away from where I've been Obelisk overlooking the Dirty rivers, smells chemical-sweet Sun shines down on Glasgow greens I feel the future coming fast towards me Northern soul on a midnight boat Play the slots, hope to win your ones I'm thinking about jumping overboard I'd take you with me everywhere I go Cross your days off a calendar map How long you been gone? How long you got left? Only a fool would live their life like that Only a fool would live their life like that Cross your days off a calendar map How long you been gone? How long you got left? Only a fool would live their life like that Only a fool would live their life like that
