I know, I know Your eyes are the rain, just a soul that's changin' in shape I'll be laughin' all of the way Thinkin' 'bout the days, oh [Chorus] Nobody knows where they are going Oh, how we try to wrap our minds Over the edge of all our knowings Be it a bang or the divine Tip of my iceberg blues are showing I've never been one for goodbyes So, 'till I meet you there, I'm singing A traveling song to ease the ride And so you know, everywhere I roam I'll see you on the road, ooh-ooh [Outro] So, farewell to my friend He, who taught me to love like a beast And to feast like the queen that he fed turtle soup Little boy from Paris to the States, check the facts That was Magical Max He was black sheep and mischief and loved for his craft Then he told me that I was Apollo 13 On that very last day, he said "Shoot for your dreams, little girl, to the stars," Well I'm taking you with me Now this one is ours And I know what you'd say, you'd say "On with the show," So on we go
