Kansas Taking In The View Lyrics

Taking In The View Lyrics

The world began to change the children moved and they had children

It was
all arranged you couldn't live there anymore

All you had was that old place
in the middle of the path of progress

So they took the space and put the
ceiling on the floor

In one of the rooms all the walls were blue

It was
hidden so well that no one knew

Just the place for taking in the
view



The view of the sea crisp and clear and never ending

There
your soul ran free there you spirit soared

The view took you away to the
boundaries of imagination

Back to yesterday back to once before

In one
of the rooms all the walls were blue

A mysterious space without a
clue

Just the place for taking in the view



Long lives need no
fortune

Hard lives need no fame

Young lives seek their freedom

And
old lives seek the same



The world began to change and without a word
of explanation

Something very strange started beckoning to you

When
they came to move your things you had packed a suitcase full of
memories

Nothing else to bring except a different point of view

In one
of the rooms all the walls were blue

A mysterious space without a
clue

Just the place for taking in the view
