From a distance the world looks blue and green,
And the mountains they look like holy dreams.
I wanna run through the valley,
Fly down the highway, barefoot freedom
I wanna sail across the ocean sea,
And see the places people dream of,
Like Bali, Ha-a-waii,
Amsterdam and London.
(Verse)
I don't know where they're going,
But they got to be going somewhere,
I've got to run like a river that don't know where he's going,
Just keep on running on.
(Chorus)
From a distance the world looks blue and green,
And the mountains they look like holy dreams.
I wanna run through the valley,
Fly down the highway, barefoot freedom
I wanna sail across the ocean sea,
And see the places people dream of,
Like Bali, Ha-a-waii,
Amsterdam and London.
(Bridge)
And in the sun of the noonday,
I'm burning all of my memories,
The years of our lives will fall away,
I won't look back no more.
And though I've made mistakes in the past,
And now I'm paying for the price,
I'll try to forgive myself tonight,
Start out a brand new life.
(Verse)
Some people see the world through colored glasses,
Some see it in black and white,
I prefer to see the world
Through rose colored glasses.
(Chorus)
From a distance the world looks blue and green,
And the mountains they look like holy dreams.
I wanna run through the valley,
Fly down the highway, barefoot freedom
I wanna sail across the ocean sea,
And see the places people dream of,
Like Bali, Ha-a-waii,
Amsterdam and London.
(Chorus)
From a distance the world looks blue and green,
And the mountains they look like holy dreams.
I wanna run through the valley,
Fly down the highway, barefoot freedom.
