Lyrics
I'd like to get away from this place
Tired of dealing with all the pain
So many voices angry with greed
Gonna find me a little peace...and quiet
I long to breathe the open water
Feeling the sand beneath my feet
Can't see the cities for the trees
That's exactly where I need to be
Blue blue skies and snow capped mountains
Drift into my sights, I'm blown away
Turquoise waters, the warm ocean breeze
It's exactly where I need to be
All I need is a peaceful place
Far away from the human race
Compared to most I know my life's not tough
But I've seen too much
I've had enough
So I'm off to see the open water
Feel the white sand beneath my feet
If you need me, that's where I'll be
Gonna find me a little peace...and quiet
Peace...and quiet
