julian casablacas - tourist

i wish that clouds could hold me up

like i thought as a child growing up.

i wish i could sound as soothing as the rainfall

but i am only a drop from the storm.

i feel like a tourist, out in the country.

once this small world was all countryside.

feel like a tourist in the big city.

soon i will simply evaporate.

i took the strings up north.

the drums down south.

i take it across to afghanistan,

a long time ago.

shuffling your feet into the next dimension.

soon skyscrapers will be everywhere.

i feel like a tourist lost in the suburbs.

soon the whole world will be urban sprawl.

feel like a lover out on the ocean.

feel like a tear drop streamin' off your chin.

some will bet against you, try even to prevent you.

but not many can stop you, man, if you got a perfect plan.

can they possibly try or demand to know why they would doubt you?

in this sand... a thousand generations.

feel like a tourist out in the desert.

so hot it feels like the devil's breath.

feel like a tourist out in the swampland.

this world is just patches of water and land.

everywhere i go i'm a tourist,

but if you stay with me i'll always be at home.
