James Taylor - Terra Nova lyrics

Your rating:

Oh end this day show me the ocean

When shall I see the sea



May this day set me in emotion

I ought to be on my way



We were there

We were sailing on the Terra Nova

Sailing for the setting sun

Sailing for the new horizon



May this day show me an ocean

I ought to be on my way



Ought to be on my way right now

Stepping on the boat

With a lump in my throat

On my way right now



I got a letter from a dear friend of mine

The story of a spiritual awakening

She spoke of her love

Returning in kind

She let me know that

She'd be waiting



And I should be on my way by now

Walking across the floor

Reaching for the door

On my way by now



But here I sit country fool that I am

My elbow on my knee

And my chin in my hand

My mind in the gutter

And my eye on the street

Holed up in a cave of concrete



And I ought to be on my way right now

Packing my things

While the telephone rings

On my way right now



I miss my lovely mother

And I love my lonely father

I know I owe my brothers

One thing and another

I hear my sister singing



And I ought to be on my way right now

Moving across the land

With my heart in my hand

On my way by now

Ought to be on my way by now



Oh end this day set me in motion

Ought to be on my way



Out of the west of Lambert's Cove

There's a sail out in the sun

And I'm on board though very small

I've come home to stop yearning



Burn off the haze around the shore

Turn off the crazy way I feel

I'll stay away from you no more

I've come home to stop yearning
