Walk Around The World
Adrian Belew · Side One [2005]
and the muse begins to fly
Then she will come to wrestle me
Just as I am about to sleep
When the moonlight in the fall
Make some movie on the wall
Then she will come to tears
She's afraid of fall from reality
Ref: Walk around the world tonight
See these places – they're only in my mind
I see everything - beautiful things
I can do the garden in your hair
Visualize the city in the air
Where little faces in little squares
Talk to me
I am late
I am late
2.If a man can't learn to bend
Like a reed does in the breeze
Then how will he ever comprehend
All of life's sweet mysteries.
Ref: Walk around the world tonight,
Use your brain
Your perception
Use your imagination
Even reality is mostly in your mind
